Speaking in unusual detail, (Transportation Security Administration chief ) Pistole offered specifics about an underwear bomb devised by a master al Qaeda bomb-maker in Yemen meant to be exploded in an airliner over the United States last year. The plot was foiled thanks to a double-agent inside al Qaeda's Yemen branch.
Pistole described the May 2012 bomb as "a next generation device" that was "new and improved in many respects" from the Christmas 2009 bomb. Designed by one of the most wanted terrorists in the world, Ibrahim al-Asiri, the device featured "a new type of explosive that we had never seen," Pistole said. "All of our explosive detection equipment... wasn't calibrated to detect that. And all of our 800 bomb-sniffing dogs had not been trained for that specific type."

If an underwear bomb works a cavity bomb works too.
Why blow up a plane in person using underwear or anything else when they have already smuggled more than enough MANPADS in to the US via the open southern border to take down hundreds of commercial airliners whenever they want to?
I believe the TSA is full of sex perverts who are fixated on others’ underwear. The TSA mainly gives losers jobs.
“new type of explosive that we had never seen and our detection equipment wasn’t calibrated to detect it”????!!!!!!!”
It probably came from us, DOD. Or it don’t exist and this
is all BS.
OH NO, going Commando? Won’t that be considered Threatening?
“3. With all our advanced technology, how come AQ can come up with a “new type of explosive that we had never seen and our detection equipment wasn’t calibrated to detect it”????!!!!!!!”
Yeah. Strange/odd. It’s almost like....AQ has ‘someone’ on the inside in the USA that told them how our equipment was calibrated. (sarc tag not needed I hope)
Well, yeah, why would we believe Pistole anymore than we’d believe Obamuzzie, Hildebeast, Napolitano, the IRS,take your pick? So the Rab’s are chemistry geniuses? I’m guessing the secret is made from something they scraped out of their underwear.
Inside man at the skunk works??? Suuuurrrree. The only way this makes the tiniest bit of sense is if we don’t have any actual inside guys but we hope this starts a purge of whoever is left. Getting the Yemenis to kill each otheris productive.
Can you say... more conditioning?
The frog is boiling and almost ready to take his last gasp of air.

It was and remains a big mistake to call it a War On Terror. The enemy is islam. It is a War Against Islamists. We are losing because certain fags in high places refuse to name the enemy. It is treason IMHO.
Makes everyone who flies - "Go Commando"!
I'll have to start flying Hooters Airlines, where the stewardesses are Hooters girls. Stripping down with them wouldn't be so bad.
You could put an eye out with one of those!

The fart heard round the world.
Sounds like they are trying to make up an excuse to fondle more women and children.
Plenty things are better than an underwear bomb.
Must be MormonISM's New! Improved version...
Do THESE guys profile AMERICANs that board THEIR planes?
