Amazing Terrorist News Map

A web site that shows Global Incident Map.

This map shows Terrorist activities worldwide. They use icons for different categories of incidents and you can move and zoom any area of the world. You can also see US based Amber Alerts. The Amber Alerts page tends to be a little dated - meaning you see where the person was found and it might be weeks old data. They need to have a filter on it for only active alerts.

Just a personal observation about the transparency of information world wide. There are a lot of countries that don't show any terrorist activity at all and that would be clearly a view into the fact that they control the media and information flow out of their countries. Makes you want to live there (yea right).

I mainly just wanted to share this as a interesting site to look at from time to time - especially if you are planning to travel anywhere - it is good to look at it to get an idea of what is going on in a region you maybe traveling too...

This is a site I found from my new favorite Web Service
