September 11th
What need I say?
I was reading The Peking Duck today (a blog posted by an American in Singapore), and he posted an email sent to all American expats from the US government. Part of it reads:
"...We therefore assess that European or Eurasian locations could be venues for the next round of attacks, possibly to closely coincide with the anniversary of the September 11 attack. We expect Al-Qaida will strive for new attacks that will be more devastating than the September 11 attack, possibly involving non-conventional weapons such as chemical or biological agents..."
Now I'm not one to freak out or anything, but that's still a little scary. If you think about it though, there's a better chance of me dying in a car accident on the way to the airport than being killed in a terrorist attack, but you never know.
There's no point in living life in fear, because we're all going to die at some point. So why not make the most of our lives right now?
