Comments on: U.S. Warns Airports To Watch For Dry Runs

"Routine" Advisory Tells Of Bomb-Like Ingredients Seized At Four Airports Since Sept. 2006

The simplest way for a suicide bomber to get on a plane is to stick plastic explosives in his colon (several pounds will fit, which will blow the plane to kingdom come). A modified cell phone transmitter igniter will pass through the metal detector without setting it off. Then all you have to do is place a call to the igniter with a cell phone to detonate it.

In essence, this would be a human IED. The terrorists already know the technology and our screening procedures will not catch it. So the bottom line is that looking for cheese in baggies is great, but it isn't stopping terrorist bombings. All it would take is for Al Queda to pull their heads out and stick a bomb in instead.

....... Somethin' stinks, and it's just not the spoiled cheese.

So. no innocent person would tape stuff together, carry perishable items (cheese) or take the time to empty a resuable ice pack and refill it with clay, would they. Why the **** are officials downplaying this? And why no mention of arrests? Are there not a kazillion cameras and thousands of screeners/security people being used?

If the terrorist want to blow up planes why don't they do like the drug smugglers. Put the Explosives in condoms and swallow them and hope like hell the flight isn't delayed.

Let's Dissolve the FEAR..w/ REAL, constructive action. Not, B.S.--i think everyone is tired of B.S. AHMEN !

I travel all the time for business. I pack food with me (yes, blocks of cheese too)in my checked luggage, and if they take my food, I will be royally pi$$ed off. I avoid a lot of expenditures and weight gain by taking my own food, as well as a serrated knife for cutting a fresh tomato (also in my luggage) and a fork. What also makes me mad is each airport is different. What passes in one doesn't pass in another, etc. I never know what to expect anymore. Don't get me started on international travel!

A Tyrant's only weapon, is FEAR.

I bet the Defeatocrats feel real stupid now about fighting them over there so we don't have to fight them over here. It's just a matter of time before one of these clay or cheese bombs slips through security and unsuspecting passengers are covered in Play Dough or fondu!

[micma-2009]

Don't worry people. We're fighting them over there so they would never come here right?
