I Googled "Is Sri Lanka safe for tourists"?
And came up with this:
/// The good news is that Sri Lanka is a remarkably safe place to travel in, and violent crime against foreigners is virtually unheard of – this is still a place where, despite 25 years of brutal civil war, in parts of the country the theft of two bicycles is considered a crime wave. ///
How times have changed.

ummmm //But he's right, Spicerack.//
I'm glad you said that. Gromit's post, which ummmm apparently agrees with, that I said was garbage;
// The truth is that people are safe in any country.//
You and gromit need to inform the Foreign Office. They keep issuing travel warnings and it's costing us £millions.
//There have been attacks in Christian, Jewish, Muslim and Bhuddist countries, but they are not common or the norm.//
Again, those fools at the FCO seem to think they are more common or the norm in some countries than others.
//Terrorists attacking any country, their main objective is to damage the rulers of that country, not the victims.//
That must come as a great comfort to the victims and their families.

In other words you would like me to ignore any specific reference to Islamic terrorism. When by far the majority of atrocities committed by terrorists across the world is perpetrated by Islamists why would that be? New York, London, Manchester, Paris, Madrid, Bali, Nice, Tunisia, Egypt …. shall I go on? That’s what is happening, that’s what people are afraid of, that’s why governments recommend that some places in the world be avoided - and refusing to acknowledge any of that changes nothing.

I rarely visit AB anymore because the community that was once gentle has become horrible and the agenda dominated by fake far right sites.
But I had to laugh at AOGs question and its total ignorance of religion in Sri Lanka.
A bit rich coming from someone who keeps saying that there is no spike in the number of attacks on the Jewish community...apparently the Jews are just cooking the books.

Yes Talbot, really!!
Do you think before any terrorist attack a "role call" is taken?
"Oh no, we can't drive a truck through people, fly a plane into a building, detonate a bomb,or initiate any other atrocity" one of our brethren may be in the crowd"
Believe it or not human life is worthless to a terrorist, it's the disruption to life in general that they believe makes their point.
