The terrorists won another battle
Aug. 10th, 2006 02:26 pmWith the total disruption of air traffic these days I would say their got a nice victory.
Now that even baby bottles are a cause of concern I see the day coming that all passengers must go to the airport to strip naked (binary explosives hidden in clothes), undergo a bowel cleaning and have to vomit up their stomach contents (binary explosives in the digestive system) then are strapped to chairs and transported on the airplane (to avoid karate experts taking over the airplane).
Over lunch we agreed that would eliminate most security problems, except that a terrorist might have an implanted bomb. To offset that you would have to come a day early to the airport and fly at a random time in the next 2 days, while waiting in isolation, bomb-proof rooms.
So to avoid the slight risks of a bombed airliner people are going to run the bigger risk of a car trip, and to give up their rights and dignity. A clear victory I would say.
