#1 SOOOOOOOO, I guess the demonstration events for the Athens Olympics will be:

Bomb Defusing
Field stripping an AK-47 blindfolded for time
Bomb assembly for time.
Bomb detonation with points given for body count.

The IOC should have their head examined for choosing Athens given the fragile and volitile state of that region.

#2 Strange, it has been quite calm the last couple of years with regard to terror in Greece. I wish our Greek friends a terror free olympics next year, which I plan to visit.

#3 Murat, hook up with Aris in Athens while you're there, for the further glory of Rantburg! Down a few Ouzos and let the games begin! Hope you have a great time.

#5 England fans aren't allowed to go to that match, Murat! Besides, I'm not really into the whole football violence scene ;) Beers another time...

#6 Another time I agree with Murat: Being in Georgia when the Olympics were in Atlanta, I can say its not pleasant having a bomb go off during the games. Here's hoping things go well and without incident.

#7 Was in Derry, N. Ireland when my favorite pub was boomed. A quick clean up, new TV and they were back in business. Kinda hated the plywood windows, though.........But the beer was good and Donald Duck was on the telly.
