Airline security?
Is it just me?
Yes, it is great that the latest plot was foiled. But it was due to intelligence and not something detected at security. So now, after the cow is out of the barn, the TSA institutes new regulations prohibiting liquid carry-ons.
Sept 11 was attributed to a "Failure of the imagination". Supposedly no-one imagined that suicide hijackers would attempt something like that. That's not really true, but let bygones be bygones. You would think we'd learn out lesson.
The capability of liquid explosives has been around for a long time. An attempt was partly successful many years ago using liquid explosives and resulted in a fatality, I believe somewhere over the Pacific Ocean. A large plot was even foiled several years ago (Manila?). So why does it take a new, luckily failed attempt at destruction, to clamp down?
What other security exposures are there just waiting to be exploited?
Disappointed Baal Habos.

IC, It sounds like the US restrictions on Liquid and cosmetics is permanent. But you do have an interesting theory.
Soon they wont allow passengers on the planes. Too dangerous
Bush is very disappointing. He may be a friend of Israel, but he's a doofus
I mean "bomb sniffing" devices allready exist. They even have scanners that can see through a person's clothing to find everything underneeth. (like those xray glasses in movies) I
Where do I get one?
Apparently, they installed one at heathrow allready.
You think that I can get a job there. All men that line, all women to age 35 this line. Smile please.
The only thing that will make the airlines safe is "profiling". Until the Politically corect idiots get that right, we will be in danger of attacks!
>Umm, bush has nothing to do with Airport security.
true, but he's still a doofus.
IC. LOL. No thanks, I've got my own Tsoris.
