HEBRON, Ky. -- A security breach forced the evacuation Thursday morning of a terminal at Greater Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky Airport. Transportation officials said a passenger walked away with his bag before security agents had finished screening it.
Officials said the man or his luggage had set off an alert that would have subjected him and his bags to additional screening, but he had disappeared into the crowd before agents could call him back.
As a precaution, all passengers on board flights connected to Terminal 2 were required to disembark the aircraft and all travelers in the terminal were required to evacuate the building. New security screenings were undertaken for all travelers, and airport spokeswoman Barb Schempf said operations were back to normal by 8:30 a.m. No safety or security threats were found during the additional screening process, officials said, and flights resumed.
No information was available about the passenger who caused the security breach, which remains under investigation. Airports around the country have heightened sensitivity in the aftermath of the Christmas Day arrest of a man who allegedly tried to detonate an explosive device hidden on his body on a Northwest Airlines flight near Detroit. However, transportation officials said the airport's response to the security breach was standard procedure for such situations.
Your entire post deserves national news headline IMHO. Americans already know what their government refuses to acknowledge and/or act upon. The idea of filling the administration and embassies with Japanese after being bombed at Pearl Harbor would have been (and rightly so) unthinkable and people would have been outraged.
This administration seems determined that everyone with ties to Islam is their friend until proven otherwise -- a potentially deadly mindset. Citizens are questioning the common sense and inability to be forthright of government with regard to what we all know is an Islamic extremist threat. The same would hold true if the perpetrators of terrorism in the vast majority of cases were French, English, Spanish or whatever. It's NOT racism, it's common sense and it's National Security.
Thanks - there is also a good map of Yemen in case we decide to retaliate which I doubt with 0 at the helm

You’re welcome Cindy. I plan on doing a lot of reading this New Years Eve. There’s a lot out there on the web to absorb and pass along.... It’ll be a quiet New Years Eve here at my house.
I’m at home too - quiet night for me and my exhausted dogs.
Keep the good stuff coming - I’m reading :)
CNN: AP- CIA post chief among the 7 killed in attack against CIA FOP base; al-Qaeda claims responsibility for attack
IMO this had to be an inside job once again. Prayers go out to their families.

Moved this over from old thread
Best wishes for a peaceful, healthy and Happy New Year. I’ve been running back and forth from the kitchen to the computer room all afternoon....trying to keep up. Big neighborhood party (within snow machine distance) tonight and I was tasked to bring Buffalo Wings....15 pounds of them. I won’t stay long because I really hate body to body crowds. Mr. RR will be in his glory. He will have a captive audience for his scintillating (ahem) conversation. RR Jr. (our other next-door neighbor) promised to bring me home after 30 minutes. That’s about as long as I can stand it. I’ll be the oldest one there and don’t know all about the latest pop icons, fashions, etc. I long ago lost interest in potty training techniques, the best laundry soap, and which neighbor is acting slutty. (actually, she is the one I like best...LOL) I’d rather be here with like-minded souls and a really good book. Yep, I’m getting old.
So sorry, in advance, but....
Ouch! Putin Answer About Terrorism Stuns Press Conference to Silence
No need to apologize - I just read it on Twitter and found it very interesting.
I bet Putin can out maneuver 0bama with one hand tied behind his back.
OT but interesting and scary bit of info - a clue of things to come?
Mayo Clinic Drops Medicare Patients in Arizona as Obama Model Bemoans Cost... http://tinyurl.com/y8pneb8
I definitely agree with you on all of that RR. I can’t stand crowds anymore - they seem like petri dishes of germs to me. LOL
Rather sad, isn’t it, that we find ourselves admiring a foreign leader (Putin, no less) more than our own.
C ya next year.
I just read that on another thread. That’s where Mr. RR and I go once a year for our annual “poke and prod”. (Mayo in Minnesota) They will probably follow suit and not take Medicare also.....which is our secondary insurance. Oh my.
The older I get, the more I hate crowds and airplanes. Unfortunately, I have to deal with both “petri dishes”. Purell is my new best friend.
Sadly, the times we are in require a no nonsense intelligent & tough president who is who he says he is, not a charlatan.
Wow V! You sure were busy at work today, I shall get busy, although I’m behind. Just got in from work. Great job sweetie
