I would not feel safe going there.

Me neither, Croemer. How in the H#LL did they get into Russia already? I guess Putin needs to be informed that he needs more help than he was willing to admit.

They are home grown...from the part of the Soviet Union that has suffered under years of
Russian repression....the Ukraine is protesting too...

Parts of Russia might be beautiful etc. but you couldn't pay me enough to go anywhere near the place during the Olympics. Suicide bombers making threats that they will most likely try to carry, out make it too dangerous in my opinion.

I still can't find this story, though trouble is brewing in the Ukraine.

People who were protesting yesterday got a strange message on their cell phones...that they were now registered as protestors.

This is really scary. I saw a report on the news last night. They think a black widow already infiltrated the inner circle at the Olympics.

It's either going to be a complete disaster or nothing at all will happen. I'm praying for the latter.

Well, that can easily happen in ANY country these days. No one country can ever claim that it is safer than another when terrorists are determined to disrupt and kill.

Caravaggio, I studied Russian and Soviet history in school. I know a lot about the Tzars, Bolsheviks and the modern day era, I stand by my statement.

Thats nice and my family is from there and so I too know its history. I stand by my statement.

Well, bully for you! We're each entitled to an opinion - my statement STILL stands.

Wow defensive much? I did not even refer to your post to start with so back off.

The terrorists are promising that there will be a hit. I wouldn't go there if someone had given me free airfare and tickets to the venues. If I was the mother of any of those athletes, I would NOT want my son or daughter to go - even though I realize the work and sacrifice each athlete has put into their sport, the threat is too real and I don't trust the security.

I worry about the Super Bowl..... Seems like a good target as everyone is focused on the Olympics.
