Whatever version.
Why like a Swedish couple, with strong religous belives and also beeing Christian missionaries, go to places like Tajikistan?
It was some years ago so I don't remember the country. In the same region anyway.
They where held captive for months.
Stupid thing to do, biking in Daesh territory if you ask me.

I don't think it was considered to be Daesh territory, though, was it? Perhaps it is now but I don't recall any other incidents before this one that have been claimed by the group. I'm not saying there haven't been though. But if it was known Daesh territory - why did the state department only rate it as a level one risk?

What state departement?
I wouldn't go there until it's level zero because they have rather strange risk rates there....

What state departement?

Erm... the one mentioned in my post ;) Oddly... I thought I'd saved myself some time by shortening it to just "state department". Now I realise, all I'd shaved off was two letters (U.S) which would have taken barely any time to include, and instead loads more were needed to explain myself ;) Apologies, moomin.

I wouldn't go there until it's level zero because they have rather strange risk rates there....

I suppose. Cycling round the globe along any route you might opt for, is never going to be without risk though.

Hehe:)
Actually I missed that part you mentioned that it's the US state departement that give the ratings.
Well I have my own opinions on those ratings.

Suspected explosive devices were sent to former US President Barack Obama and ex-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, the US Secret Service has said.
It comes two days after a bomb was found at the home of liberal philanthropist and financier George Soros in the suburbs of New York City.
The devices were discovered by technicians who screen mail sent to the former US officials.
The Time Warner building in New York was also evacuated due to a package.

There is no comprehensive count of civilian deaths because of the difficulty of confirming identities and allegiances of those killed. But in an examination of drone strikes this year alone, The Associated Press found that at least 30 of the dead likely did not belong to al-Qaida.

That is around a third of all those killed in drone strikes so far in 2018. The Pentagon does not release its assessment of the death toll, but an independent database considered one of the most credible in tracking violence in Yemen counted 88 people — militants and non-militants — killed by drones this year.

SYDNEY (Reuters) - Australian police on Tuesday said they had arrested three men who were allegedly preparing to make a terrorist attack in Melbourne, just weeks after a man killed one person in the city in what police said was an act of terrorism.
