Well you know what sparky, they did try and hit the eiffel tower. In 1994. Then they tried to hit the Parliament.

So whats your idea of a "western" nation can I ask?

Of course France is a Western nation, but if you re-read my post I didn't say that Western Europe had never been targeted. Yes, they did unsucessfully try to hit the Eiffel Tower years ago. My point clearly was that, in my opinion, it will not be targeted for a major terrorist hit NOW for the reasons stated in the post to which you responded. I could be wrong, but I think my analysis makes sense.
