« Hackers Declare War on ISIS | Main | ISIS Bomb » Don't Mess w Soccer in Europe
By Micah Halpern
Wednesday, November 18, 2015 I've Been Thinking: Europeans are very serious about their soccer or, as they call it, football. Don't ever mess with European football. The terror in Paris on Friday messed with their football. Three near simultaneous suicide bombers blew themselves up at the stadium that was hosting a football match between Germany and France. And then, yesterday, European football was messed with again. There was a substantial and credible threat of a bomb. About the stadium scare - a report came in that security found an emergency vehicle filled with explosives. Police did not confirm the report. Also, a local reporter on CNN International reported that a bomb was found at a train station in Hanover. The station was evacuated and people were sent home in an orderly fashion. And then a concert that was supposed to start was cancelled and everyone was sent home. It is hard to generalize about a large group of people, but Europeans love their soccer and they will not take kindly to people who are disturbing and interrupting their games, even exhibitions matches. This terror may have an unintended consequence. It may rile up the Europeans enough that they start to protect themselves not only at stadiums, but at other public events and locations, as well.
