prairie's one of the real good guys around here who really really comprehends the terrorist threat (even if she is a girl.) I suspect you recognize her nic now, and simply hadn't read who post#51 was from.

I hope they are OK with me checking on 3 bags, since I have to check on the bag I would have carried on.

I'd say after the compelling evidence the UK and Scotland Yard has, that the Muslims in the UK might want to consider packing up too.
BTW, I didn't see any Middle Eastern looking folks on the UK or Scotland Yard TV footage. Maybe I didn't see all the coverage and, ALSO, I know I'm being politically insensitive, but our Country and our way of life is at stake so save me from the sermon.

They never heard of the holocaust? Or Stalin, perhaps?

Some good friends of mine with 7 month old twin boys were scheduled to fly back to Indianpolis today. They have been over there for 2 months while he was taking a class.

It seems a reasonable guess that they were intending to blow them up over US cities. I'm still wondering if there was even more lethal plans.
Two things I haven't seen on thread yet:
---Terrorists had definite link to AlQueda (surprise, surprise)
---Planes destined for Washington, NY, and California.(says CNN)

Heh- This hurts Airbus with its new plane that holds 650? passengers. One Jihadist psycho could bring down that plane with a decent bomb in the checked in luggage

If it is a co-ordinated attack, it would not take much more than a six pack of soda cans filled with ammonia and another six pack of bleach to create a noxious gas on a plane. Considering the reaction, checking all liquids, my guess is they were trying something along those lines. While I do not think that would be "an unimaginable scale" compared to 9/11, it could easily be done.

I haven´t understand her intention in #51. That´s it. I thought she has misunderstood my post she was replying to, but that wasn´t the case. Oh man, I wished I hadn´t replied! *sinking in the floor*

From what I've seen on the tube you're gonna have to combine it into the other two.

Can you imagine having to put your laptop in checked luggage? I can't imagine it surviving the trip...

Unimaginable Scale? How many passengers are normally on a Tran-Atlantic flight?

No, even between all the clothes in the suitcase. Why the he** do they have to give their laptops away? Laptops are screened and the security looks closely on them. I never got the impression that I could hide something in laptops from them.

Probably not as many as the densly populated urban area it might have come down in.

LOL- that is the one thing about the internet -- you can't see the twinkle in the eye of the person you're talking to when they're joking with you.
It's easy to get nabbed by sarcasm like that. It's happened to all of us here.
