Man arrested at Philadelphia International Airport after allegedly trying to pass security with homemade bomb ..full title
The Dallas, Pa. man was arrested after he allegedly tried to pass through the security gate with what was described by officials as a homemade bomb, the report said.
A background check of the suspect shows no initial ties to any terror group. The suspect told authorities that he was “just fooling around” with the explosives and forgot they were in his backpack. The bottle was reportedly filled with powder commonly found in fireworks.

The powder is a part of a bomb, but it is not a bomb. Or am I missing something?
Very interesting. Thanks for posting.

Sounds like test run.
Feed him to pigs.
Palestinian? How many folks fool around with explosives and casually carry it in their backpacks? So much so that you forget when you catch a plane? I've run into problems carrying chewing gum packages in my pocket (the foil liner triggers the scanner). TSA rescanned me several times until I found the gum. Gum, you can forget about.
