Tired of looking over your shoulder?

In view of yesterday's blog, I would like to ask a question on something I have been mulling over for a little while now. The trigger point was in today's news, airport officials found a detonator and timer in a suitcase in a flight bound for Germany. It is still unclear if this was a live explosive as only ongoing forensics will declare that. However, what caught my attention was the fact that it was reported that the German interior minister said there are, "concrete indications of a series of attack planned for the end of November". Now this is not the first time I have come across such a statement. Infact, some of the bomb plots were only discovered by so called "tip offs". For instance, the plot discovered last month in Dubai was indeed possible because of a tip off from Saudi Arabia. It has led me to question what is indeed going on behind the scenes. Is this another means to scare into the masses? Or is this truly a war going on? Im not saying that I would actually like to see these so called bombs go off but all these speculations are actually worse than the bombs themselves. Everyone is paranoid and constantly looking over their shoulder. Is this really how we are all going to live for the next coming years? What are your opinions?
