Suicide attacks have taken place in America, and in Europe and elsewhere. I daresay few if any at all targeted "Jewish-themed" buildings etc. This is because the antisemitism of what Roy calls "combat fundamentalism" is less important than the superordinate hostility to US power. I don't understand why you think Jewish-themed districts are more likely to get it, and I still don't get what makes you think Hezbollah are on their way to your district. That's exactly the kind of thinking that gets Bush elected, you know.
