An attack was thwarted.  That's good news.  The fact that France and
Great Britain and Spain and the United States and Ukraine and Chile and
Morocco and -- well, pretty much EVERYONE is under continuous threat of
attack is NOT NEWS AT ALL.  

If you require arbitrary or artificial alarm to keep your disaster
response current, then I think you have a problem -- not the least of
which is that you're subject to arbitrary and artificial alarm.

The terrorists seem to have us right where they want us.

So let me get this straight. There was just a news release that a major
terrorist attack based on the Mumbai model of a small group of armed men
making suicide assaults on European cities was averted by concerted
intra-governmental police and intelligence action and the take home
message is that we are paranoid to be worrying about our medical
preparations for mass casualty events?

I am not paranoid, and refuse to be manipulated. No reason to be overly
concerned NOW.

I have been concerned about the "upcoming" terrorist attack for the last
10
years. They are patient. Time is of no account to them. Everyone should
ALWAYS be prepared. That is what war is all about.
