The answer to the first question is that we are where we are no longer free.

A Modest Proposal, Not!

They are trying to prevent a bomb by keeping liquids off the plane along with the other new restrictions. They hope future analysis will discover effective less intrusive screening tactics. Wags have often suggested flying nude as an effective tactic. If all the bomber needs is a stealthy soda bottle, a disposable camera (plausible on such a flight) and brief privacy for the required final assembly, than embarking nude wouldn't stop the bomber. However, a very simple measure could stop the bomber, even without today's restrictions... Remove the doors from the planes' restrooms!

Folks might scream bloody murder, but it would prevent the murders and thus serve a higher priority. Without private restrooms there would be no on board assembly of stealth bombs, unless the majority on board were also suicidal Jihadis. They aren't stupid enough to try that strategy and most of us aren't stupid enough to join that boarding line. This could be preferable to another effective option - doing to the planes' restrooms what libs previously did to the planes' ashtrays. IMHO that option stinks. I'm not seriously suggesting this, but perhaps a less taboo way could be found to nullify this weak point in our security.

So what is your plan then to keep these weapons of lunatics made of household goods off airplanes? Keep in mind airplanes are vulnerable and it doesn't reallytake much to bring it down. And keep in mind you have to keep people like you who scream about their freedoms happy, all the while trying to protect your sorry a$$? Pray tell?

There's an even easier way than that. No muslims allowed to fly

Batchelor is as strident as ever: There will be no cease-fire, fantasy, IDF must finish the job, Nasrallah and Iranian leader believe in only one thing: Jihad. Therefore, IDF must find Nasrallah, they must kill him.

Man, Batchelor came out swinging on his opening segment!!! Interesting tidbit: When Nasrallah gave his speech with the 2 flags behind him (Leb. and Hezbo), the Hezbo flag had "eternal jihad" written on it. They will fight to the death, there will be no ceasefire, etc. The only thing to do is kill Nasrallah now.

Whoohoo, like a breath of fresh air after all the UN measly mouths and MSM all day.

"The terrorists freedom is trumping our freedom."

You hit the nail on the head. And frankly, I'm tired of having to accomodate uncivilized people.

Yes, I agree with you about his leadership and on that point I would support him. I do have a problem with his personal life but hey, if he is the candidate at some point against a liberal- it is a go.

Decapitation -- IDF has not been doing that, has been restrained to date. However, IDF has started the process by announcing via leaflets they are preparing to take out C&C in the Beirut.
