Well, it's a revolting thought, but you're probably right.
Better yet. NO MUSLIMS ON AIRPLANES. Take the train or bus. A report i saw last night said the Syrian "bandmembers" removed a wall mirror in the lavatory and were cutting their way into the cockpit. Pilots and flight attendants should be armed.
No F#$%ing way someone is going to pull that on me while I am flying. I'll drive, hell I'll take a ship to my destination.
Arm the passengers and no one will ever take another plane hostage.
TSA and Arab terrorism: Returning the world to 19th century transportation.
That's a major bit of news!
Body cavity searches of passengers prior ro flights?
Totally kooky idea IMHO.
And you think the airline industry has problems now.
I would like to see the source of this information.
Different flight.
I hope that's not a pun.
Actually, plastic explosives cannot be detected by the magnetometer (metal detector). Granted that these plastic explosives are not readily available, however, terrorist states like Iran, Sudan, and Saudi Arabia can purchase such material legally, and smuggle it back to the US via the un-searchable DIPLOMATIC POUCH!
This is easy to solve.
Just remove the bathrooms on planes.
Everyone would just have to hold it until they land.
With no bathrooms the airlines couldn't serve food or drinks either.
Think of all the money they would save!
For anyone who is humor challanged...I'm kidding :-)

Personally I don't think airport security is so good that this would be the only way to bring stuff aboard. I am sure the terrorists would be more creative than to stick things up their ass.
You are a very wise man!
Ok, in that case you get the first San Fran to Hong Kong trip.

You know, the very last thing I want to contemplate when I'm standing at the security checkpoint is that Bobo over there with the rubber gloves on might be wanting to do a visual of my ileocoecum the hard way. Knowwhumsayin?
I can't hold back any longer, I just have to let this out.
Remember one of the favorite "Pogo" quotations?
How about, "We have met the enema, and it is US."
I'll slink away now....
