Holy crap!
No passport. And Indian handler for the Amsterdam airport transfer.
And another passenger with a bomb in his bag was arrested in Detroit after the flight landed!

If this story has any validity, the worldwide airport security network is a failure.
There have been many comments regarding the tight ship at Schiphol Airport.
I posted a bunch of info on this on an earlier thread but that thread was locked as a dupe by the adm mod.
Holy crap, indeed. That link needs to be widely seen.

We all joke about grandmas in wheelchairs being searched while the terrorists are passed right through, but this is ridiculous. No passport, no search, and six months earlier the FBI was alerted by his own father that he is a terror prospect who shouldn’t be allowed to fly.
Six months—just the same length of time that the FBI knew all about the Fort Hood Shooter—and did nothing.
I just love two things about the story at the link. First, the quoted witness, “Pug,” says that it never crossed his mind that the terrorist was a terrorist when he boarded the plane suspiciously. Pathetic. He is bragging about being politically correct (stupid) even though it alomost cost him his life. Second, I love how this guy has some sort of credibility because he is a contributor to mlive.com (whatever the crap that is). i.e. if this were you or me making this statement we would be deemed an uncredible, racist.
