The last incident was in East Jakarta, where 3 policeman were killed.

But that happened only days after many, many more people were murdered by a terrorist in Manchester. And not long before that there was London... and Paris ... and Nice... and Paris again....and Brussels .... and Berlin.

And then last week we had Barcelona. And multiple times Istanbul. And loads more, but my memory gave out.


If you're going to allow your travel plans to be circumscribed by terror-related events, your available destinations are shrinking daily. And the terrorist wins.
