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.

Good points, I agree actually. Sorry, not even really sure why I disagreed. I think I needed my morning coffee. My apologies : )

Your disagreement was welcome. You were in no way snide--the only attitude that ever bugs me in posts.
