Guwonder where on earth did you see that I said that Nepal was part of India?
Here is what I did see in your prior post:

Would you also just as well say: "As to Egypt I would not be so foolish as to visit Taba or Israel where there is a war going on"? A bit of mixing of countries and then some.

As of now? Sharm El Sheik was also fine up to last week. There are many places in the world that are unlikely to be attacked by terrorism. Some just get a "high" from going to these places. Good for them.
I cannot think of a single foreign tourist who has been killed by terrorism in the Jammu or Ladakh parts of the state of Kashmir. Not one in 16 years. No war there in the major tourist centers. Even in the Kashmir valley itself, at the tourist centers, not one foreigner has been killed in the past 5 years. More people with American and European passports have found themselves victims of terrorism in the US, the UK or Israel than in Kashmir these past years.
If you asked most people a few years ago (or even many today), they would not think of Copenhagen as a likely place to be hit by terrorism in the next few years. Sadly, I am increasingly confident it too inevitably will be. Should I avoid CPH now too?
