SNIPPET: "Discussion: I first observed discussion of binary explosives on the al-Firdaws forum in January of 2007. In light of recent events I will post here my archive:"
SNIPPET: "Implementation: On Christmas Day, 2009, Abdul Farouk Abdulmutallab boards a flight in Amsterdam, bound for Detroit, and on final descent he attempts to set off what was most likely a binary explosive. Thank goodness he either screwed up or had bad instructions, because the chemicals he was working with were evidently quite good."

Yes, terrorism would have been ruled out immediately.
Perhaps the correct question is what would the official public version be.
At least two US airliners have been brought down in very similar circumstances.
A rhetorical question to all:
Had he not have screwed up, would the FBI have determined that a fire caused by electrical wires running through the Center Wing Tank started the fire and caused the explosion?
Excellent observation...well done!!!
Re Internal Bomb...
I have a thread covering the “rectum bomb” here:

I am sure the Imams would trick up their theology to allow for that. These guys are talking to the gullible set anyway.
Yes..really, in my opinion; it can (and sometimes does) come down to that.
I don’t know if you’ve ever been a victim of a personal crime(s); I have.
When you have a split second to act — what will you do?
Will it be a “deer in the headlights” moment or will you just do what you have to do to rectify the situation?
In my opinion, in today’s world; people must ponder thoughts like these.

Suspect’s Father Told U.S. of Son’s Extremism
New York Times ^ | December 26, 2009 | Eric Schmitt and Eric Lipton

The Nigerian man accused of trying to ignite an incendiary device aboard a trans-Atlantic jetliner on Friday came to the attention of American officials at least “several weeks ago,” but the initial information was not specific enough to raise alarms that he could potentially carry out a terrorist attack, a senior Obama administration official said on Saturday.
The investigative file was opened after the father of the suspect, Abdul Farouk Abdulmutallab, 23, warned officials at the United States Embassy in Nigeria of his son’s increasingly extremist religious views, the official said.
“The information was passed into the system, but the expression of radical extremist views were very nonspecific,” said the senior administration official, who has been briefed on the inquiry but spoke on condition of anonymity because it is continuing. “We were evaluating him, but the information we had was not a lot to go on.”
The incident prompted a significant change to airline security on Saturday. Domestic and international passengers will not be allowed to move about aircraft during the last hour of a flight, and there will be extra screening of baggage at airports.
It was unclear whether Mr. Abdulmutallab’s name was entered into the Terrorist Identities Datamart Environment list, which includes people with known or suspected contact or ties to a terrorist or terrorist organization. That list is maintained by the United States National Counterterrorism Center. It includes about 550,000 names.
Those people, however, are not necessarily placed on the federal government’s so-called no-fly list, which prohibits persons entering the United States because of known or suspected terrorists links. Mr. Abdulmutallab was not on that list, federal officials say.
Mr. Abdulmutallab [...] was carried off the plane handcuffed to a stretcher, his trousers sheared off.

bomb in the crotch implies that there is a leg between the device and the outside wall....
But this mad-man was sitting over the fuel tanks, and force would have been directed downwards into the fuel tanks....taking the family jewels out as well....so much for 72 virgins.....
I missed the “no passport” topic... Where is that newsy tidbit?

I asked my husband that same question earlier today. If, God forbid it had gone according to his jihad plan, would we have ever known the truth. There is no way this one was getting covered up with the passengers alive to tell the story. Thank goodness for those alert passengers.
I don’t know why you say stuff like that.
He was an engineering student.
Probably a very good suggestion....keep’m flying in the same direction....out of town.

Last summer I flew from Newark to Houston. A guy named Mohammed checked my bag at the curb in Newark.
When you’re in the legal profession; everything appears lately to be “alleged”; unless of course it’s happening to you (generic you) of course.
They'll just clone him.
I fly regularly. Many times the cleaning or food crew are wearing muslim clothes.
