"He could very well be a nut with some goofy thing there for "health" reasons."
Electronic anti-oxidant suppositories?
Nu Yu Life Enhancer? (Just plug it in for a few minutes each day, and you won't believe the changes in your life!!)
Can I be questioned by Phoebe?
You're not stupid or naive, but the guy wearing this collection, most assuredly was!
Contributing to global warming no doubt!
The MO is to take seperate parts of a bomb on board with you or to bring a part on yourself and retrieve other parts already hidden on board....assemble them and then detonate the bomb [ala Ramzi Youssef].
He was either putting parts on board or he was the trigger man.
Regardless, he's gotta go.
I gotta say, hardly anything surprises me anymore. Alot still grosses me out tho...
susie
Yeah - they detain him at 5:40am. They find all that stuff on him, the plane doesn't take off until 6:56am (over an hour after they first detain him) and they STILL don't get his luggage off the plane. HELLO. What is wrong with this picture??

"The bomb squad was called as a precaution and authorities said they found wires in his clothing and a magnet inside a lower body cavity."
Calling all EOD types and engineers: What is the magnet for?
I'm sure there is "the rest of the story" that we will never know.
I find it sad and frightening that our government doesn't trust us with knowledge...............knowledge is power.
Spun when he passed gas and generated electricity (see my post above).
Also, in one of the articles the FBI said there was also another unidentified item in addition to the wires and magnet.

"Investigators said the device weighing 1-2kg was locally made and was fitted with a half-an-hour timer. The bomb had a magnet attached to it, they added."
Perhaps he is under the delusion he is a cow.
" upon such of those to whom the Scriptures have been given as believe not in God." Sura 9:29
Ban the queeran! IT IS a hate crime against humanity!
Well, I think those are supposed to go in a cow's first stomach, not in some wacko's bum.
Read a book in which the bad guys were placing "plastique" in the "lower body cavity", then sending the lucky recipient out to provide a distraction. I cannot remember the title,however that part is tough to forget.
magnet, wire... all he needs is a battery and he could fashion an electric motor - or, perhaps, an improvised electromagnetic pulse weapon.
ok... probably not enough power in a portable battery to make an electromagnetic pulse, but certainly enough to possibly be a "trigger" device. Magnet, wire and ... undisclosed third item.
FWIW. BTW, I did not do well in science in school. LOL.
EMP LOL!
