Not necessarily - I just see it as an element of unnecessary risk that wasn't present at the other Olympics. Even Salt Lake 2002, five months after 9/11, wasn't at risk for a nuclear attack.
They were worried about an injury to a star derailing a season. Killing the hundred best NHL players is not so far outside the realm of possibility that it doesn't merit consideration, and as such I think that played a bigger role than the powers that be will ever admit.
