nnnnn: why are people such fuckheads?
nnnnn: "The key here is the use of everday readily available containers that (use to) raise no flags, not the secret ingredients in them. The idea is to keep the ingredients from being detected, thus the ruse."
nnnnn: well, yeah, and my idea usually when stepping on plane is to get from A to B. Stop fucking blowing them up.
nnnnn: "My guess is the bullshit and hype will continue until the elections."++
nnnnn: wonder if US, UK and .au are having synchronised elections again ...
nnnnn: sure as fuck must save them on PR consultancy fees that way
nnnnn: perhaps they were gonna choke everyone with fumes ...
nnnnn:
nnnnn: terrists, planes have oxygen masks built in
nnnnn: terrist
nnnnn: effectively, what the authorities are now saying is 'our special bomb detector xray machines can't detect bombs' .. which sounds like hella bs to me
nnnnn: and how is putting the bomb in checked baggage gonna make it easier for them to deal with?
nnnnn: more views from schnier blog, including some sane ones
nnnnn: if the terrists want westerners out of mid east countries, why aren't the terror attacks on planes full of westerners travelling to/from mid east countries?
nnnnn: surely airport security at heathrow is above average? and uk police are above average?
nnnnn: "al queda" attack history
nnnnn: "I don't believe any of it. I think it's a manufactured story to bolster Tony Blair's failing poll numbers."
nnnnn: "Actually, I doubt it. Not that he'd have any compunction, about it. It's just that it would be easier (and less risky) to find some half assed wannabes with a never-going-to-succeed plan and keep tabs on them. Then if have a minor political crisis, you can cash them in by uncovering the plot and staging a media circus."
nnnnn: "The aim of terrorists is just that: to create terror, to engender 'a false sense of insecurity.'"
nnnnn: "Terrorist do not take away your freedoms. Terrorist destroy things and kill people that is all. Only governments can take away your freedoms."
nnnnn: "Standing there looking to make sure no one has a tube of toothpaste is patently ridiculous, because now we're looking for objects again -- we're not looking for threats" said Michael Boyd, president of the Boyd Group, an aviation consulting firm in Evergreen, Colorado.
nnnnn: so basically this is a plot by the carriers who don't provide free drinks, to sell more drinks during the flight...
nnnnn: (on the back of a bunch of misguided shucks with fireworks) ... all praise the corporation
nnnnn: "Distracts perfectly from the Lebanon subject."
nnnnn: what was it the terrists said they wanted again ... ?
nnnnn: people stupid enough to plot terror attacks are rarely smart enough to succeed with them.
nnnnn: "Advertising accross international news networks about how easy it is to make a liquid bomb, poses a far greater risk thank doing nothing at all."
nnnnn: ... unless really, there's zero chance of making a useable binary bomb that would have passed existing security measures in the first place
nnnnn: LOL @ "I wouldn't expect Al Qaeda cells to attack on a day when security is at level Red"
fridge: Everyone should have to fly nude and sedated
fridge: Even then, someone may buy some coke & mentos and detonate a devestating stomach bomb
nnnnn: "people in airport terminals dumping all these possibly potentially explosive chemicals into garbage cans and tubs. Umm, if that stuff was supposed to go off when mixed on the plane, what prevents some of it getting mixed and going off on the ground."
nnnnn: noone has authority to declare blanket bans like this on a casual basis, whatever is at the root of it, it is something with intent, good or bad, your guess
nnnnn: so these guys must have invented a new type of exposive, right? or why wasn't this restriction placed long ago? or the detector equipment fixed?
nnnnn: and still, wtf help is checking the baggage supposed to be? LIES
nnnnn: what was it the terrists said they wanted again? oh? everybody to put their shampoo in checked baggage? well ok...
nnnnn: whatever
nnnnn: oh yes, tweezers AND shampoo ..
nnnnn: /me rubs the lotion on his skin ...
nnnnn: atrocious coverage courtesy of news ltd
nnnnn: (1) does not concede even that the "plot" inproven until one word in par 5 ("alleged") and then ignores this possibility throughout
nnnnn: (2):"The overwhelming focus was to prevent a repeat of the cockpit invasions that made 9/11 possible. Other scenarios were not seriously considered." sorry, just not even feasible, or should have been the headline. which one is it, news ltd?
nnnnn: (3)"..1990s .. Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and Ramzi Yousef planned to use liquid explosives to blow up 11 airliners over the Pacific Ocean .. Mohammed subsequently told investigators that the idea of using liquid explosives was based on his belief that terrorists 'needed to graduate to a more novel form of attack'."
nnnnn: (3 continued) unbelievably the article fails to mention, let alone even emphasise, this Mohammed is the SAME MOHAMMED WHO LATER DID 9/11 (allegedly)
nnnnn: (4) last half of the article is pure, wild speculation, and credit to noone (unless the vague "officals" is meant to carry for 6 pars)
nnnnn: (5) calls the plot "creative and sophisticated". plots to blow up planes are neither creative, nor sophisticated.
nnnnn: perhaps we can have a hollywood for terrists with golden blown back hair and sexy garters
nnnnn: Khalid Sheikh Mohammed smokes Vice, the cigarette you have when you're not having a cigarette on paper.
seti: your creative and sophisticated is my wacky and convoluted.
nnnnn: (6)"Even if hijackers did gain control of a plane, they would almost certainly be shot down by air force fighters before they could reach their target." this is almost certainly false, based on the experience of 9/11.
nnnnn: (7) but remember, kids, don't be afraid .. cause that's what the terrist wants .. well at least did squeeze that in somewhere, even if it was the last line
nnnnn: WTF? "Also banning airlines from bringing on additional safe drinking water?"
nnnnn: WTF? "Bill Poland, 61, of Ross was headed to Lake George, New York, with his wife and son. He held up a tube of lip balm and shouted to a security officer who told him he couldn't bring it on the plane with him. He said he recently had a cancerous growth removed from his lip and the anti-bacterial ointment was necessary treatment. "In an hour or two my lips are going to start burning and turning purple. And I've got five to six hours on a
seti: ...plane without this," he said. "This is not something I'm looking forward to." '
nnnnn: this confirms to me, most people cannot think more than one step away from what they are told
