Wow, that sounds like BIG news...
...except that it was revealed in January as this Guardian article can attest:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/germany/article/0,,1686330,00.html
I have also been inundated with e-mails claiming that the opening ceremony, scheduled for July 7th (sic), has been cancelled. Other early World Cup dates in the e-mail are given as being in July.
It actually starts on 9th June - with an opening ceremony:

And finishes with the final on 9th July:

I am not suggesting that this precludes any 'terrorist activity' but it lends heavily to ones credibility if one gets ones easily verifyable facts straight. |
