Bono cancelled his trip so he could sit back at his computer and laugh uproariously over the reactions here.

What would be great is if this thread got voted 5 stars and everybody panicked and stopped posting in it.
Didn't we already establish that his trip was cancelled because Rob Partridge died? His friend and employer just succumbed to cancer. That's a reason not to travel. Terrorist attacks not even in the same place as where he'd planned to go are surely not the reason.
Terrorist attacks have happened in Dublin. Bloody Sunday, anyone? Though Belfast is more of a hotbed for the IRA. Belfast is a lot closer to Dublin than Mumbai is to Doha though Doha's probably safer than Dublin
Of course, at this rate, if something were to happen in Dublin, Ireland, people in Dublin, Ohio would probably be freaking out
I'm close to Dublin in South Australia. They're building a hotel there just so they can temporarily shut it down.
you should be, bono and i were chatting earlier and he said he wanted to "get that fucker een"I'm 1500 miles from Adelaide....I'm shitscared now.

Oh noes, I'm only 11,000 miles from Dubin.
Do you have any idea of geography?
Cancelling a trip to Doha because of attacks in Mumbai would be like somebody in New York not taking the subway to work because a train derailed in London.
Doesn't Edun do some business in India? Could they possibly have people in their organization in harms way? Also concerning the terrorist attacks with reports that westerners (Brits and Americans) being targeted this may be beyond internal Indian terrorist activity. Not enough is known yet. I would think with the album work being so close to wrapping up any uncertainity about his security would be unwelcome. Yes, I know he's Irish not British but an awful lot of people seem to think of him as British or even American. I have frequently gotten puzzled responses from people on saying he's Irish because they actually thought he was American. Go figure.
