Politics gets in the way of pop as Israel’s war in Gaza overshadows Eurovision Song Contest
Politics gets in the way of pop as Israel’s war in Gaza overshadows Eurovision Song Contest
The organizers long strived to keep politics aside, but global tensions have often imposed themselves on the contest and things are no different this year.
You're viewing part of a thread.
What's the point in waring a seatbelt when you cannot prodict or stop the next accident?
And the equivalent of the seat belt here would be what?
Worrying
I'm pretty sure worrying won't save any lives in a catastrophe, so that's a very poor analogy.
Worrying could lead to measures which might help to avoid/reduced impact/midigate destruction of the next incident.
You worrying could lead to it? How exactly?
I don't know about you, but when I'm worried, I am more alert.
Let's say my some kids are playing in the sea, my worry will keep me looking over to see everything is OK.
So in our case, if we the individuals are worried about extreme Muslim movements/communities, we will be more alert around them and keep an eye out. This way a planned attack is harder to carry out.
But that's just a theory.
So you can't actually give a real-world example of worrying having any effect on extremist terrorist attacks... unlike seat belts. Hence it being a bad analogy.
Also, I assume you won't be at Eurovision, so I am guessing your worrying about a bombing there wouldn't matter even if worrying did have an effect.
Mmmm Iron dome might be an example.
Worries of rockets fired by extream Muslims rapidly excelerated the development, production and deployment or the system.
The death toll from terror attacks was reduced by a lot (in calculatable [for me at least])
