Do the recent Isis attacks scare you?

In Bangladesh and Saudi Arabia?

I think it's very insulting to Muslim month of Ramadan because it's supposed to be a peaceful nonviolent month, people in the UAE are furious (the Arabs) about these attacks. (I live here)

I am not scared of them and will still live my life the same, but for some it may be different especially if they don't live in the safest countries.

800 people dead in a month is not hyped up.

Though it's not something that is new to the human race. In-fact its kinda minor compared to parts of our history. As for your question, no they do not scare me.

It's true it's not something crazy but it is crazy at the same time.

It's no more crazy than stabbing someone in the street or hacking 800 bank accounts and pick it clean for money.

Taking all of someone's money ruins their life quite easily, and in that case it often leads to suicide or death in other ways. (Note that this also happens on a fairly frequent rate too.) If you only think of the immediate effects of your actions and no the long term ones, then you might wanna think it over again. Long term effects are far worse than immediate effects.

In America and many other countries it's very likely that you'll receive compensation and such because of the way insurance and such works. You can claim theft on your taxes every year if something is stolen.

But I still do see what you're saying and it makes sense now that I've rethought it haha Smile

Cases such as losing all value you have have immediate effects that can drastically change the long term effects, thanks to human nature and our wonderful "panic" factor.
