Thanks for the ping Jan.

This is operation BOJINKA back in action again

Bojinka was the '95 plot involving Khalid Sheik Mohammed and Ramzi Yousef in the Philippines, and was exposed after a Manila apartment fire led authorities to the laptop and bombmaking equipment. A Japanese business man was killed by an inflight explosion caused by a liquid bomb during Bojinkas test phase.

I've written about Bojinka here before, and the plots evolution into 911. I always suspected the original plan would be a revisited as an AQ "plan B" after 9/11.

Some of you know how close this story is to me... please ping me to any further developments. I'm too worn out to read the rest of this tread at the moment.
