Where-next - betting on terror since 2005
http://www.where-next.com/
"Are you sick of betting only on Nasdaq, on the price of oil, or on football games? How about on where the next terrorist attack is gonna take place?
From now on, you'll be able to do so! Just like capitalism bets on your own life. Unfortunately you still can't destroy cultures different from yours by using dollars, McDonalds or Paris Hilton videos; you can't bomb the nation you want, pretend to provide humanitarian aid, and then install brand new governments. Unfortunately you can't even restrict the civil rights of your country proceeding with indiscriminating arrests of new citizens, migrants or activists. Sorry!
What you can do though, is bet on where the next terrorist attack will strike! And keep your fingers crossed that it is not your place."
