Two young men got arrested in Vienna for planning a terrorist attack on Taylor Swift’s concert, in the beginning of August. One of the criminals is 19 years old and the other 17.

The police found bomb-making materials at the 19-year-old’s house. He intended to activate them during Taylor Swift’s performance at her concert. And, if the attack actually happened, more than ninety two thousand people would be victims.

After that ocasion, the concerts had to be canceled, and Taylor spoke about the whole situation on her social media, saying how grateful she is for the authorities’ action, and that grieving concerts is better than grieving lives.

It was discovered that one of the young adults supports the Islamic State terrorist group, and they might want to call people’s attention to their cause, because they stand that an artist shouldn’t get more attention than an actual war, like the one happening in the Middle East.
