The Washington Examiner's Sara Carter appeared on Greta on Fox tonight. She said an intel source told her it was "sheer luck" the bombs did not go off.
Carter also said the packages were put on the planes outside of Yemen, indicating the terror cell involved has a wide reach.

A statement posted Friday on the UPS website said that at approximately 12 p.m. Eastern Standard time, or 8 p.m. local time, UPS flight number 6 from Dubai and headed to Cologne, Germanya Boeing Co. 747-400crashed after takeoff.
The United Arab Emirates official state media reported late Friday that the bodies of two pilots had been recovered.
The cause of the crash wasnt immediately clear, but it appeared to have been preceded by a fire on board.

The entire First Family and all their friends, relatives, dudes in the neighborhood, and half of D.C. will soon be out of the country. I question the timing.
Not that Hussein cares, but is Bo going, too?

“Sheer luck” they didn’t go off. I guess that means “Our anti-terrorist systems worked as they were intended.” Right, Ms. Napolitano?

Had the poor luck to be flying out of Philly this afternoon. At noon, I was grabbing a sandwhich and saw the shots of the planes quartantined in Philly. I emailed the group I was traveling with and they headed to the airport around 12:30 and I left 45 minutes later. They had 2 TSA agents walking through the lines as we endured a 35min wait to get through security. At the end of the 35 minute wait you face the TSA agent at the other side of the metal detector. Mine was a muslim woman in headgear who patted down all the woman who went through but didn't touch any men.
Odd.

I smell a “false flag” operation meant to make 0bama look competent on thwarting terrorism attacks, right before the election to help Democrat candidates. But I think it will backfire, as people will be reminded how indifferent he and the Democrats are to really fighting terrorism.

Perfect National emerg to shut down elections coming from the President Ovious would be blowing up ballot drop boxes and planting suspicious packages by the hundreds of thousands across the nation Tuesday morning.
