Question Where in the world can you go to where there is not a terrorist threat

Where can you immigrate to where there is a zero terrorist attack threat? Where can you go to and have a happy, normal life? It seems that these people are out to disturb everybodies peace of mind. According to these articles Australia has been at risk for a long time???? ''

The Innuit people havent been too militant recently so there is always Greenland.

Iceland is another option, but then you have the threat of volcanos and listening to Bjork

Heard & McDonald Islands! I'd say Bouvet Island, but someone tested a nuke there a few years ago and didn't own up to it.

Try the Spratly Islands in the South China Sea - bit of a scrap over ownership at the moment between the neighbouring countries but my guess would be zero terrorism threat.

Not sure that EasyJet go there yet but give them time

I lived in Netherley (Liverpool outskirts) a few years back: a bomb going off there would have been seen as urban renewal

The answers on your doorstep....NZ We don't even have a defence force any more (present Labour govt scrapped the RNZAFs fighter wing so it could spend the money on trips for dole bludging losers to go on hip hop 'cultural' missions etc etc) so the chance of Osama and his mates attacking NZ is remote because we've got nothing to attack the arab states with ourselves anyway.

Only downside is the possibility of watching your house be shaken to little pieces in an earthquake if you live in Wellington / S Island, or burned to a frazzle by a volcano if you live in Auckland/central N island/Taranaki.

On the plus side we have no nasty snakes/spiders/critters (ok theres the katipo, but its so shy and retiring you'd be lucky to ever see one). A more sinister threat is the resident aussie population (and Helen Clark).

We used to kick arse at the rugby not so long ago, but thats another story

You obviously haven't heard of the Greenland Peoples' Liberation front (or is it the Peoples' Liberation Front of Greenland?)
