TSA: Terrorists May Be Conducting Preattack Security Probes
POSTED: 4:23 pm EDT July 24, 2007 UPDATED: 4:36 pm EDT July 24, 2007 In a new intelligence bulletin obtained by NBC News, the Transportation Security Administration is warning law-enforcement and airport officials that terrorists "may be" conducting "preattack security probes" at U.S. airports.
The unclassified bulletin, dated July 20 and marked "For Official Use Only," is titled "Incidents at U.S. Airports May Suggest Possible Pre-Attack Probing."
"A surge in recent suspicious incidents at U.S. airports may indicate terrorists are conducting pre-attack security probes and 'dry runs' similar to dress rehearsals," the intelligence bulletin states. "Past terrorist attacks and plots show that such testing generally indicates attacks will soon follow, according to a joint FBI and Homeland Security assessment."
The report says that TSA personnel have intercepted items at U.S. airports "resembling improvised explosive device (IED) components," including wires, switches, pipes and "dense clay-like substances" from September 2006 to date.
The items were confiscated at airports in San Diego, Milwaukee, Houston and Baltimore. In two of the four incidents, blocks of processed cheese were connected to wires and an electrical switch, or the cheese was taped to a bag holding a cell-phone charger.
A U.S. law enforcement official cautions NBC News that the new bulletin is an analysis of possible suspicious behavior at U.S. airports and not at all a sure sign of terrorists at work. The bulletin is just one of a stream of intelligence reports constantly churned out by TSA, the Department of Homeland Security, the FBI and other U.S. agencies.

Because cheese isn’t illegal??
Better hurry up and silence all of those John Doe’s so CAIR can get its way.

Flying Imans...
And double the amount of grandma's they frisk. It's the blue-hairs, I tell ya...
Be on alert, but don’t notify anyone - else you may lose your car, home, savings, etc...
They don’t normally arrest people just because something is confiscated.
I had a really neat little pliers/screwdriver tool on my keychain when I went through airport security. They took it away, much to my dismay. But they didn’t arrest me.
One time I also had a very special little pen knife on my keychain, and I again forgot that I had it until I stepped into the security line. They took that away too, but still I didn’t get arrested.
Terrorists conducting security probes.......FYI
I guess I should have put up a /s tag....
All they have to do is slip something in one of the food carts.
As Democrats and Moslems, they are immune from arrest.
And now they are using U Tube to promote their election for POTUS in '08.
Don’t expect “John Doe” to help much.
That statement deserves repeat. ; )
Schizophrenic liberal wannabes are rampant after all.
Yikes! Sounds like widespread and thorough. Hope the individuals are well tracked. Good reason for wiretapping.
