Was reported on news last night that we broadcast these 'dire' warnings because of US policy of informing citizens abroad that they may be in danger. Duh, when citizens travel abroad, I think they oughtta know that while travel is fun, there are risks sometimes to being a US citizen on foreign soil. Anyway, I'm getting annoyed at all the press Bin Laden and his ilk are getting. Could be a deflection while Dubya goes round Europe making an ass of himself...again.
