Everything is relatively. Greece didn't send troops, but let USA to use their air base in Creta island (Souda city). It's the only american base left in mediterranean and for sure the largest. It was one of the first things the american govt wanted to secure before declaring the war.
Back to the question:
Will arab terrorists hit Greece during the Olympics?
Terrorists do not have the same reasoning with us, I doubt they have any, thus I don't believe what Greece did or not is an important factor for them to consider. Definitely an attack during the Olympic Games would spread world panic like nothing else. On the other hand it's gonna be very risky. Personally I don't think Al Queda or another relative group will take such risk. This shitheads don't risk their position, that's why fighting this level of terrorist is like shooting in the air.
My guess is if they're going to hit Athens it will be done before the Olympic Games (as already said here) or they'll launch an attack in another european city or US state, where the security levels will be much lower, during this event.
