How many of you remember the TERROR IN THE SKIES story that came out in a magazine (Women’s Journal) in July 2004 and recently made into a book?

Debunked: http://www.snopes.com/politics/crime/skyterror.asp

Y'know, I don't see that writeup as entirely "debunked". I don't put it past the Islamonazis to conduct "tests" under cover of legitimate travel. Note that her account of the actions of the Syrian men was corroborated--then explained away. If I had witnessed what she had it would have certainly gotten my attention.

Snopes may have 'debunked' that, but the lady was interviewed by Michael Savage last evening. She was unwavering in what she said she saw. She also said 'local officals' sided with her, but their Washington bosses were the ones who said it didn't happen.

She still contends that the Syrian musicians were doing a trial run. She said the flight attendants were concerned enough to notify the pilot, and that 'officals' were at the plane as soon as it landed.

So why's the report classified?

I just read the Snopes.com debunk comments and they are not saying the event did not happen, in fact they confirm IT DID HAPPEN, but quote authorities that said it was just a Syrian band and she overreacted.

That's not a very comprehensive "debunking."
