My job takes me from the U.S. to Europe 3-4 times a year, so new security measures and terrorist threats have been affecting me personally since September 11th.

I constantly remind myself (and more importantly my wife) that statistically I have a better chance of dying on the way to the airport than once I am in the air.

Life is full of threats and chances and regardless of how many security measures are put in place, none will ever be full proof when the muslim terrorists have already shown they are willing to die for their insane cause.

For people who fly a lot for work, there are really only two choices...suck it up and live with the risk, knowing it's never going to be resolved...or switch to a job that doesn't require air travel...an idea that doesn't sound too bad on days like this.

Again, the sooner the PROBLEM is resolved (eradicated) the sooner security can ease back. It is a diseased mindset.

It is a supremacist ideology that seems as happy to dominate the world as it does to tear everything down and claim victory as a martyr.
