As Europe continues to endure terrorist attacks, fear-mongering politicians and media seem eager for these to have a greater impact than they deserve. Sure, these events are tragic...but no more so than other equally-deadly non-terror-related tragedies.
Lately, I’ve been visiting sites where terrible terror events have occurred: London’s Westminster Bridge, Barcelona’s Las Ramblas, Brussels’ airport, and Nice’s Promenade des Anglais. At most sites of vehicle attacks, there are now bollards in place to stop murderous cars from entering.
I’ve been in Europe five months so far this year...and, clearly, Europe (while working on security) is embracing life, not fear. With this more reasonable and thoughtful response, potential terrorists become lowly criminals with intent to terrorize and do not get the hoped-for results they wasted their lives for. Join me in this clip for a stroll on Nice’s wonderful Promenade des Anglais.
