seems like these bombs were not planted to a lot of kill people, the objective was to induce terror in the city. the explosions weren't massive and the places they chose were busy places not the really crowded ones.

That's horrible,... you and your town have my prayers. It definitely shows Islamic terrorism is a world wide problem.

You know what's weird? Now if I heard this on the news, I don't think it would affect me as much. I'm not saying that I don't think it's terrible, because it is. But you're never really moved unless you deal with it on a personal basis, like this thread. We're hearing from someone who was actually there (or close to there), so it's a lot more moving.

But that really sucks. I hope all your family and friends are okay. By the sound of it, they are. But still, be safe.

I wouldn't call it "Islamic" Terrorism, that makes it sound like all muslims are terrorists, and want us all dead. It's the extremists and fundamentalists that are the problem, not just muslims in general.
