Here are seven steps you can take to maximize your chances of survival in a time of random terrorist attacks.

1. Eat well.

2. Take moderate exercise daily.

3. Don't smoke.

4. Drink in moderation.

5. Don't speed.

6. Wear seatbelts.

7. Pay full attention to your driving.

LOL
One would hope to induce random googling to clear things up
but I'll always do my best to oblige if asked

As for parking in a fire zone:

"According to the Israel Defense Forces, during the 442 days from the beginning of the current Palestinian intifada until the end of December, 2001, 120 Israelis were killed by terrorist suicide bombings, shootings, hit-and-runs, stabbings, or other means within “Israel proper,” that is, not including terror victims in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.

All of these murders are tragic, and I do not intend in any way to make light of them here. However, given that 6.3 million people reside within Israel proper, these deaths work out to an annual personal risk of death from terrorism of 16 in one million, within the boundaries of Israel proper, which would be the destination of most visitors.

Is this a big risk or a little risk? Let’s compare first with the risk of death from motor vehicle accidents in Israel, since one thing tourists do is travel around. Again, excluding the West Bank and Gaza, Israel’s Central Bureau of Statistics reports 461 traffic fatalities during the 2000 calendar year. This adds up to an annual personal risk of 73 per one million, which is nearly four times higher than the risk of death from terrorism.

So what, you say - this makes Israel look worse! Look again. The 2000 Statistical Abstract of the United States reports that about 41,500 traffic fatalities have occurred in each of the past several years in the US. With a population of 286 million people, the annual personal risk of death from a motor vehicle accident in the United States is 145 per one million."

Terrorism only works if you're terrorised, that's why it doesn't work so well in Israel.

I think you're wrong. Only people terrified of paying for thier cruelty to others would terrify those others as a soothing balm for disturbed minds. And there is no doubt that Israel is a terrorist nation who supports and armed the mercenaries butchering the people of Syria.

So I guess Bashar al Assad is the victim here, and Putin is just giving him a helping hand.

Assads government is the elected peoples choice (mutiple times) of government and Putin is covering the underbelly of the Eurasian continent which has long been lusted after by the scum who rule the miserable western world. No country has any business in Syria without the expressed consent or invitation of it's elected government. The United States and its vassals are commiting an act of war and under the Nurembourge articles has put itself in a position to be tried for war crimes, and that will one day be the greatest show on earth, the gutting of a tyranical evil power responsible for millions upon millions of murders in the name of democracy.

Really?? Isn't all that military hardware to protect them from some bottle rockets fired from Gaza?? (taps foot repeatedly)

How about real vs engineered?? Is there a difference in that the people should react differently based on the root cause?

... and always swim with a buddy.
Even on shore, . . . especially on shore.

That is still more likely to happen than winning a lotto, once in a row.

Yeah, but with the lottery you must buy a ticket and so choose to play
Like parking in a fire zone so to speak
It changes the odds somewhat

Then of course you have false flag terrorism...
whistleblow and your odds of becoming a statistic go way up
