Perhaps that is because we are not. We are not surrounded.
To suggest the danger is the same both insults the Israelis by underestimating the threats to them, and coddles the poor, quivering Americans who, like you vastly overestimate the threats to us.

the guy who taught me to do litigation, taught me that one should never predict a % liklihood of winning- instead you should say "you have a good case, but whether you have a 40% chance of losing or a 20% chance of losing doesn't matter- because the loss is a 100% lose." translation- if they get you you're dead. but that wasn't the point of my original post- my point was that in the US Jews really can't gather w/o security because there is a real risk an Islamist will kill bunches of them.
Do you think the Islamic kids olympics needs real intense security here?
