The Original race started at Paris but now it starts in Lisbon so its Lisboa-Dakar...At least it should start there, but the f#$k&ng rashids (Islamic terrorists) had to ruin everything as allways...
The whole world is going to have to get together and DESTROY these stupid terrorists!!! The US tries to do it, but we are criticized at every turn. I was in Desert Storm, and have some idea of how CRAZY these terrorists are. The rest of the world (and a lot in the US) says "Can't we all just get along? The short answer is NO. Not when something as simple as a race can't be safely run. I couldn't imagine living where the terrorists are active daily. In a lot of areas of the world, they can't even get a pizza without the fear of terrorists blowing the place up. Beta Max and Laser Disc?? Be careful...we're dating ourselves. I remember the first VCR we ever got when I was a kid. It was a top loader. That thing must have weighed 50 pounds, and cost $600.00!!
I think by calling off the race and laying the blame on the terrorists the people that will suffer are the little towns that get some revinue from the race . they will hate the terrorists for there nonsence.Hopefully But I dont know.
