Random checks lets too many bad guys through.

I was Googling Acetone Peroxide and had a "post comment" window open at the same time, so I didn't see FairOpinion's post up above which was posted while I was Googling.

Thanks, but I am not at all convinced.

And if you tried to block those sites that say how to make a cheap bomb, the ACLU would be all over it. Yea, I'm so glad the ACLU is concerned about my freedom to be blown up.

Thermite is easy to make. Just ignite it in the right place, if you know airliners and poof.

Goes to prove that racial profiling is not going to work.
They will find a way around it and recruit non-arabs into the death cult. California has produced two so far afterall.

or just buy the DOD manual that tells you how to do all kinds of things.
The information exists, and was widely available before I had ever heard of FTP, much less the internet.

Shall we go ahead and damn algore here and now for inventing the internet?
Gore: Can you imagine what ten exploding airplanes would do to the climate? Kudos to the Brits for preventing this disaster.

Absolutely agree with you both. If the "profilees" don't like it....profile 'em even harder. If you or I were living in another country and so-called Christians were wreaking terror on that country....we would expect to be profiled at airports, etc.

What was the explosive that was successfully used in the in flight run-up test on an aircraft in the Bojinka case back in what, 1994 or 5? The perp went into the john to assemble his device.

Unless you find a bomb, how do you know if a person is a bomber?

When it comes to random acts, how do you know if the person profiled, is guilty?

I'd be surprised if any major search engine does NOT show these sites. They do not screen for content, other than sexual content.
To: The Red Zone
Like someone said earlier, the information has been available way before the internet if someone wanted to look for it.

It was the Philippine Airlines Flight 434 on a Manila to Narita route. Yousef carried the components of his bomb on him, including nitroglycerin hidden in a bottle of contact lens solution and bomb stabilizers disguised as cotton balls. In the hollowed-out heels of his shoes, Yousef hid batteries.

Acetone peroxide is a primary explosive that can be made from hair bleach (hydrogen peroxide), acetone, and sulfuric acid. This explosive is to be used in the fabrication of detonators. Oh, great, now I will have to ask for my nail polish remover and clairol haircolor from the pharmacist behind the counter like I do now for sudafed.

I don't get the,'mix the ingredients' thing.

Good Lord in Heaven, a quick google search gives plenty of sites on how to manufacture an explosive from this stuff and how to make the acetone peroxide in the first place. A lot of these sites are derivatives of the old "Anarchists' Cookbook" and other such nonsense. A good proportion of the material is simply wrong. Some of the rest is so dangerous and stupid that one does not have to worry, because anyone attempting the recipes will not survive to hurt anyone else.
The Kewl BoMZ kids will eventually solve the problem when the ISP's who host the sites are sued into oblivion by bereaved parents.
Read the newsgroup alt.engineering.explosives sometime for a horrifying example of irresponsible misinformation and technical incompetence by people who never passed High School Chemistry.

My Russian wife immigrated to America in 2001. She looks exactly like one would expect from a child psychologist, and nothing like a Muslim. Many times I felt like crying after seeing her go through 4 or more searches at the airport prior to boarding a plane, while Muslim men are waved through the system. In early 2005 she was naturalized as an American citizen, and now travels on an American passport. Since that time they never hassle her at the check in or boarding.
