Another possibility is that the two containers held some of the remains of a cremation.

Several important things to remember: 1. Not all people from Pakistan are Moslems, 2. Not all Moslems "bury" the dead, 3. As we found out from walking around in a graveyard for several hours, residue found in graveyards will set off the bomb sniffing machines.

Don't be surprised to see this story disappear.

Chris Yates from Jane's Aviation told the BBC that both the swab and sniffer dog tests were extremely sensitive. The likelihood that a container that had not come into contact with explosives would come up positive on both tests was extremely low, he said.

You could be right but they sound pretty sure it's a bomb. Also, everybody from Pakistan might not be Moslem, but 97% of them are so I'd have to say the odds are pretty good this woman's Moslem too.

FReegards.

She was traveling from Michigan to Charlotte?
Someone else may have packed her bags for her,
and THEY may have come in contact with explosives.
I imagine they will be looking at her contacts at home
pretty closely.

yeah, I am sure she just wanted to bring along her cremated/liquified jihadi brother on the plane with her to see how he tasted in that water bottle.
