When your country is run by terrorist and people are murdered and raped on a daily basis, the headline does not have the same affect as if it was posted in the US.

It may make a nice break from the usual rape and murder.

No, these are the merikans that predicted putin would invade Ukraine - despite putin's statements to the contrary.
BS. There have been 40 acts of terrorism in Merika this year alone. Head in the sand much?

Actually, the Islamic State has been fighting the SA Army in Mozambique, and they are not too happy about that. So an attack in Sandton is possible, quite possible indeed.

You see they either want to take over, or kill and take over.

Will not do well for that one guy in my local townhall meeting yesterday with the councillor demanding that a Mosque be built in a 99% Christian area.

The problem with this is that there have been a few warnings in the past from the Americans that came to nought.
While in Afghanistan, I must have received around 20 warnings a day on average. Of those, about 2 or 3, maybe 5 actually happened. If you announce it, you give perps a heads up. If you don't announce it, you put people at risk.

Your call?

Youre all so behind the times. Islamic State has been on our doorstep for a while now. Already beheaded a lot in Mozambique

Wait, the SA army is bothering IS? Really? Last I heard, our army doesn't mean jack due to mismanagement, corruption and cANCer
