Maybe you misunderstood me. I never said they would never be able to do it.
Just that the probably can't, yet. Or they are somewhere in the pre-execution stages. Since it has not happened yet.
My point really was that I don't see anything in the terrorists' makeup that would make them say "we could do this, but we will refrain from doing so."
In other words, once they can, they will almost certainly try.
And you are right - we don't know how close they are. Could be minutes away for all we know.
Thanks for letting me clarify.
Stay safe.
No misunderstanding. This is what you said below.
If they could have done it already, they would have.
That is why I said, your statement lacks logic.
