TSA is a joke to al Qaeda, too. Groping nuns, kids and seniors won't thwart terrorists

While the Transportation Security Administration is groping for an answer to air safety, al Qaeda is laughing. This week, the terror group publicly detailed its plans to circumvent the latest government security measures and bleed America to death.

The magazine includes technical details of how to construct weapons that will avoid X-ray and chemical sniffer detection, enabling other jihadist groups to try them out. An al Qaeda press release stated, "It is our plan to disseminate the idea to the mujahidin worldwide and to expand its deployment onto both civilian aircraft in the West as well as cargo aircraft."

Obama and TSA are playing into the hands of terrorists by intituting crippling and useless regualtions that won't stop terrorists, only serve to further control the innocent population.

There’s no doubt they’re laughing the rags off their heads.

I was sitting next to a full on muslim awhile back on a flight from Memphis to Chicago. Hit some bad air and the plane started jumping. The little girl behind me was laughing...her dad was scared to death...and the muslim guy next to me was chanting.

After things settled down, the Muslim guy explained: We pray when thing get rough. I told him I was good with that.

I had no fear of the plane blowing up because the little girl had been searched in accordance with security policy.........

Lot of triple posts on FR lately, could it be the newer browsers folks are using?

[Mr. Mojo]

I think just has to do with FR being especially slow today.

When the foreign occupier employed the phrase 'fundamentally transforming America' two years ago, that's precisely what he meant. Zer0 has no intention of going quietly.

Somehow, patting down disabled, elderly improves security

“Amelia has survived brain and spinal cancer, debilitating nerve pain, and the challenging transition into life with a wheelchair.

She is searched every time we fly. Every damn time.

In the interim, four other people were detained and chosen, supposedly at random, for a more thorough search. Trouble is, all five were female.

One woman appeared to be pushing 80.

Another, in her 60s, cringed as her breasts were officially fondled and her waistband was explored. She fretted about missing a scheduled flight while the TSA underlings searched for their supervisor.”
