I think this might be like the Imams-—this was a trial run testing security.
Nope, Beydoun had coke in his bag. The only kind of security test you can run with coke in your bag at MIA is of the drug-detection systems.
Somehow I get the feeling that this was no "test." This might be a live operation.
My school just made an announcement on the public address: All after school activities are cancelled all students AND staff are to exit the building and go directly home. Even night school! That never happens. Something weird is going on. A few hours ago, the school made another announcement to keep all students out of the hallways. They say that only when there has been an "incident" that doesn't rate a "code red" alert. Somethimes the orders come from downtown.
It could be. We had a strange incident in OKC over the weekend--a group of Iraqis who supposedly were here to learn how to govern were acting up on a plane. It got bad enough that the pilot called ahead and the Iraqis were greeted by the police. They then said it was all a misunderstanding. One local teevee station covered it Sunday night, but after that, it faded into oblivion. I wonder how many other incidents like these have occurred recently, but were not covered?
If you think back to just before 9/11, there was a lot of strangeness like this; James Woods, for one, spoke of strange behavior, and one of those on his plane might have even been one of the 9/11 group.
