How is their intelligence bad when they... foiled the plan and arrested the terrorist?

Austria is doing a good job but the concerted are  cancelled since there are allegedly 3 co conspirators at large so the government wasn't sure they could hold the concert safely.

This is crazy omfg. To think that there are people sick enough to want to harm a stadium full of young women  Thank goodness they discovered this before the concert started

They were most likely Austrian citizens 

Isis travel to terrorize the most weakest and strongest nations. Ariana was the biggest pop girl when Manchester happened and Taylor is thee biggest pop girl today. They need to make headlines because they are silently being wiped out and with big attention means potential time saved for recruitment since dozens have been fleeing being part of the terrorist organization

Pretty sure the first I in ISIS stands for Islamic but okay 

Just because they call themselves Islamic does not make it an organization that represents Islam or the interests of muslims. Anybody that has some critical thinking skills should be able to understand that.

I'm glad she did the right thing and cancelled. I can't imagine this world going through another major tragedy. 

[ariananext]

To think that she/they could've experienced the same thing that happened to Ariana and her fans in Manchester.. it breaks my heart. Thank God they found out in time, I have no idea how they did but they are ******* heroes. 

[LVP]

That's sad

it has been 4 days since my date and I'm still living it. I wasn't even thinking about something like this

Their interpretation of Islam isn't accurate. Same applies to the talibans perception of Islam.

What a sad and scary world we live in. No one deserves to deal with this kind of violence or threat - not Taylor, not her fans, no one.

 

More than anything, I'm just glad the plans were discovered and shut down before any tragedy occurred. It's the best decision for everyone to cancel the show. I'm sure some fans will be rightfully devastated, but their safety is 1000x more important than any concert, without question.

its just fun light shade, not that serious. You'd think the Swifties ganging up on Katy would understand that.

You can't be saved I fear. Worms for brains 

[Dragonfly]

In our hotel room, devastated. Just 4 hours ago we were trading bracelets with Swifties in the Austrian ´Cornelia Street´... We came all the way from Belgium with the tickets we´ve had for over a year now

Why isn't this an actual post on her account or TN but a story repost from the promoters …..

can these deranged LOSERS be thread banned? I get that you hate her and it's fun to banter on other threads but this is NOT the time and place. Let it go.

I think if all known suspects were arrested it should've been cancelled.

She's probably preparing a post for her own feed or story. Let's wait. 

[MusicLoverDude]

Way too scary. Glad they did this. 

[bjorn]

The next shows are the London dates. And the UK is a MESS atm with the riots. I hope she won't cancel those ones…

Yeah I got this from another sm so might not be true.

 

But I do think the government isn't confident yet they have captured everyone involved . 

Like even if they have, they will likely need a few more days to confirm it confidently

A show can be rescheduled but a life can't be replaced. As sad as it is, safety>>>>>>>>

[welham]

I'm glad that they cancelled, better safe than sorry I guess.

 

It got me wondering though, why do Taylor Swift events seemingly targeted more frequently? I don't remember reading news about threats to Adele shows for example. Maybe I just haven't encountered news about threats to other artists, but for now it really is bizarre to me that her events seem to be targeted more often than others.

[By the Water]

This is terrifying but at least they did something before anything bad actually happened
