I've not been, but I'd suggest some perspective. Even with heightened tensions, is the Promised Land more dangerous than Detroit? That's an actual question as I don't know, but sometimes we put too much weight on the the risk of very low probability events, like terror attacks, especially in relation to the rather more dangerous things, like driving, that we do every day.
