"TSA is aware that remote control toys can be used to initiate devices used in terrorist attacks," the agency said Monday in a press statement.

So can cell phones if TSA has been keeping up.

Thanks for Michelle’s link. Knew this morning when FNC announced there was nothing more to the banning of RC toys that there was much, much more to the story. This will only end when the ME is blown off the face of the earth or we all fly “au natural” on planes.

Here’s the story that triggered this, I believe (no pun intended).

There was a movie where an RC car was used as an assassination device. I think it was Clint Eastwood’s “Dead Pool.”

It's amazing how much, even at FR, the concept of "tribal knowledge" is assumed to be a universal communicator, by osmosis, presumably; nobody can keep up with every permutation of a story, regadless of how many times the name of the story changes...

Fercryingoutloud!

Here is the original "harmless (FBI), overreaction (FBI) story"...

Original Story

Here is a follow up:

Scared and Confused

Somewhere along the line, the way to find the story changed from "Egyptian-students-Pipe-Bombs" to "The Goose Creek Incident"; innocuous? misleading? Meant-to-imply a disconnect? make it as vague as possible so most readers can't connect the dots?

The MSM breeds a smarter type of propagandist when they must report the news, without actually saying anything of value to the reader!

Here, from the Michelle Malkin link is the meat of the story: yes, they were terrorist sympathizers, doing a little explosives research to aid their "palestinian" friends and those in Iraq...

…Mohamed’s laptop also contained a 12-minute video on transforming a toy remote-controlled car into a detonator. The face of the man narrating the video wasn’t seen, but FBI investigators said Mohamed admitted it was him.

“He explained that he made the tape to assist those persons in Arabic countries to defend themselves against the infidels invading their countries,” McTavish said in his statement.

And Mohamed “added that the technology which he demonstrated in the tape was to be used against those who fought for the United States,” he said.

Hello?
FBI?

Anybody conscious there?
