Terrorims Sochi Winter Games


Summary:

This article is about the Olympic Winter Games in Sochi/ Russia and the fear and risk about a terrorist attack. Dr. Gordon Woo asserts that an attempted attack on the Sochi Olympic Games by black widow terrorists is almost certain to happen. Because of the history and strains between Russia and the Caucasus Emirates, Sochi is a prime target for terrorism. Caucasus is a self- proclaimed virtual state in Russia, born in rebellion against Russian rule. The group of terrorists has been associated with al-Qaida. They aim to establish an Islamic state based on shariah law. Woo explained that it is a matter of when and not if a terrorists attack will happen against Russia and Putin. The Olympic games never been placed in an area where terrorism is close. People shouldn’t go to crowed places and avoid any events outside of the stadiums.

Analysis:

This article shows how current Terrorism is right now even in Europe.  The Olympic Games are of the biggest sports events in the world and they are always a big target for terrorists to make an attack.  These Athletes and different kind of sports has nothing to do with the political problems between Russia and the Caucasus Emirates.  But often times it doesn’t matter because these kinds of events are a good opportunity for terrorist to call attention to Putin and the world. Terrorism is still a big issue in our society and it is difficult do avoid any kinds of attacks. It is important that a lot of security is around Sochi to make the beautiful Games safe.
