120 only !

Brasil had many more than that - and regularly re-timed and re-located events to minimise the risk of a 'Lost Bullet'.

There will be/is a great sigh of relief when the ''first family' leave the country in one-piece/peace.

But others may well ask why is Obama travelling south America and not in Europe with other leaders. but leaving it up to mrs Clinton.
something to do with the dislike of the British I be thinking .

This is kind of a try to repair the Bush incident some couple of years ago.
I still remember that Bush's Security Gorillas made up an incident in the Moneda back then, when they disrespected the palace guard and security then.
