Global Incident Map
When you click on the website link below, a world map comes up showing
what strange & dangerous things are happening right now in every country
in the entire world & is updated every few minutes. You can move the map
around, zero in on any one area & actually up-load the story of what is
going on.
Global Incident Map:
There is a lot happening in our world every minute.
This "map" updates every 300 seconds...constantly 24/7.
http://www.globalincidentmap.com/home.php
Click on any icon on the map for text update information.
It's not just about Terrorism - it's about everything happening every
minute some place in the world of terrorism threats, explosions, airline
incidents, etc.

And according to that map, I should certainly put off plans to travel to the U.S., New Zealand, India, The Netherlands, and the U.K., but not worry at all about that dream vacation to Somalia, the Central African Republic, Congo, the Soloman Islands, and Haiti. Thanks! ^

I probably would have agreed with you a year ago, but looking at it just now I couldn't help but be underwhelmed when I zoomed in and moused over the icons. I saw hoaxes, non-events, and ample proof of the Chicken Little attitude all over the place without any actual issues.
So, if anything, it might as well have been a left-wing propaganda tool.

Not updated particularly frequently. False alarms from days ago are still listed.

I can't disagree that it's an interesting site with some relevance to issues in this forum. But I'm not sure the discussion about it as such is relevant, so I'll make a copy of the thread for OMNI and close this one in TS/S.
