I guess you're right. Hezbollah wasn't there two weeks ago controlling parts of the country.
Hezbollah, crime gangs in the city....similar levels of threat on the every day situation...This is not an everyday situation.
Did the IRA planting bombs with some regularity in London back when they were doing that sort of thing keep people from going to London?
The perceived risk wasn't perceived all that high by many people. And normally, they would have been right...but not this week.
