Maybe Boeing is angry about losing the air tanker deal?

Immediate lie detector and intensive background screening for anyone who could possibly have had access to the area where the “sabotage” occurred.

And when the “saboteur” is found, take steps to ensure he/she will never be able to commit such an act ever again.

There’s anti-war wackos nuts enough to do something like that but you wouldn’t think they’d be on a Boeing assembly line.

Just make sure the Jesus nut is on nice and tight.

and a suspicious washer was found in a second

Meaning it was not part of the Bill of Materials.

Was this washer transponding?

workers were expected to report for work Wednesday

I wonder if one of the workers won't show up, and will next be seen in the Middle East or Iran.

May be a case of someone sabotaging someone else’s career on the assembly line.

Well, remember there were Muslims in the military out sabotaging things. Remember the Muslim helicopter mechanic who was involved in one of the crashes early in the war? Something like 17 people were killed in it.

But there was some justice: He was one of them, because at the last minute there was need for another crew member. He virtually had to be forced onto the plane, obviously because he knew what was going to happen and he wasn’t ready to meet his virgins yet.

I’d look for American-born Muslims first, and then go one to peaceniks as a last resort, because the latter generally don’t have enough skills to get hired a job of that nature.

The Chinook has been in production since the early 1960’s. A while back on the Military Channel they showed the production line. Many of those workers have been there for decades. Shouldn’t be too difficult to narrow that down.

[jazusamo]

Yes, that’s true.

I was thinking from a standpoint of background checks but don’t know the extent that they’re done. Even so, if they’re extensive I suppose one could get through it.

Sgt. Akbar threw a grenade in an officers' tent, killing two and wounding another 12.

People say "how could someone throw their military career away". Some see it as a way to fight "the beast" from within.

If it’s sabotage, they’ll do that and more. The people involved here aren’t exactly a bunch of Fife’s.
