The alert has been lower from orange to yellow.
Why do you think this happened?
There are two ways of looking at it, I guess. You could say that whatever threat there was has passed and so the security level has been lowered. Or you could suggest that it's because when there is an attack on Iraq the government will want to increase the security level and so it has to be lowered in order for it to do that.
Some people will say that the fact that the level was lowered and there wasn't a terrorist attack means there wasn't ever a real threat. Others will say it's evidence that having a way of raising the level of security has been effective in preventing attacks. I guess you can't even know for sure though.
