Wooden Horse

Person verses person is pretty much saying, Side verses side. The war between the Greek and the Trojan. It all means the same thing. They were trying to make peace by sending the Greek a giant wooden horse, that meant, but surely didn't actually mean, "This magnificent wooden horse is their offering, to say how sorry they are for all the needless death and destruction they have caused. Only bring it inside your walls before night falls, because unless I am far wrong, there will be gold and treasure hidden deep inside the belly of that wooden horse.” All of it was lies. That only meant one thing, the Trojans were getting back at the Greeks. Sending one of the Trojans soldiers over to the Greeks side, was very sneaky, they could have lost them, but by sending him, he lied and said he is no friend of Odysseus, and then later escaping and lighting fire to send a message to his boss. By sending the horse they made enough room down deep in the stomach of this creature, and planned to attack at night, when guards and soldiers were sleepy and drunk. 

I highly doubt that something this bad could happen nowadays. We have much better security systems. Locking people up in cellar, or behind the bars. We have smarter people now that can actually take care of themselves and are ready for the attack. Yes, yes it could. People can attack anywhere they want, but what I do think is that we would have police or highly trained people to check out this 'Wooden Horse." I honestly can't say I have. Actually yes i probably have, but not recently, where i can think of what happened.
