Tal
I am curious Tal, since the reports are that the Al Qaeda are being systematically routed from the city proper and that car bombings are being thwarted by the placement of concrete barricades around the markets, is there any work being done to secure the infrastructure of the city below the streets? If I were a determined terrorist and my one route was blocked I would think it wise to search for a new one.
Since most modern cities have an extensive network of underground systems a sufficient underground explosion would reek even more havoc than an above ground one and possibly with just as lethal consequences.
I would imagine the possibility has been looked into however ,as I said, I am curious.
P.S. I enjoyed the film.
