We all know there is a chance of being in car accident, that happens every time you drive your car. But this random terorist attck is different. How can you go out for dinner now and not wonder if the restaurant you are in hasn't been targeted? One of the great reasons for a vacation is to relax and enjoy yourself, but how can you totally relax with the memory of these attacks. A car backfires...was that a bomb? Kids playing with fire cracks....was that a bomb? A gas bottle explodes...was that a bomb?.
I don't believe this is an attack on Austrlaians, it is an attack on everyone. Japanese, Europeans, English, Taiwanese. When you consider how many Balinese get murdered perhaps this is against everyone non-muslim??? Perhaps they want to turn the more affluent Bali into a Mulsin island???
I'm due to go in two weeks......but I'll wait and see.
