Police found and disabled or controlled explosion of explosive found near the Christmas Market in Potsdam. Everywhere there are similar events happening must be at risk. Edinburgh hogmanay could be a target. Security is going to have to be tight.

Sure security will already be high as it can be although how do you stop one loon doing something?

A package with a banger, some nails and copper wire but no detonator. Was delivered to a chemists.

Sounds like a hoax.

There are no Security measures that could stop an attack if they really want to.

They stop loads of attacks and they always want to.

Yes and they are mostly intelligence lead preventions not control measures.

On a soft target like the street party almost impossible without the intelligence.

:agree: If they’ve slipped through the intelligence net, there’s nothing that can be done. These events don’t have any counter terrorism security. It really hits home where the money needs to be spent in this area.

Police now saying it was an attempt at extortion. The terrorist's work is being done for them when they automatically get the credit for every incident.
