I wonder if the Russians will make grandmothers take off their shoes now.

Ping!

That sort of puts things in perspective, MI. With the droves of middle/upper class caucasion intellectuals poised to ruin a good, conservative convention in NYC, you have to wonder who the real enemy might be these days.

They'll be a heck of a lot tougher about profiling than the US.

But how can they profile? After all, they claim Chechens are Russians. They deny that Chechens are an independent people who should have an independent state... how can they then profile them?

Simple solution: no Muslim garbage on any airplanes, anywhere in the world.

No Muslims = No Terrorism = No Death.

Right> Their Jihadist scum husbands were offed so they kill innocent Russians. This makes a great narrative for dumb liberals to lap up.

Look for Russia to arm its pilots, too.

This should be a wake-up call for the Russians. Which side are they truly on?

[7.62 x 51mm]

I would hope so. Like we should have done, immediately after 9-11.

The Russians have the same problem with terrorists that we have. I don't trust the Russians any farther than I can see them, but we could work with them to eliminate terrorists.

"Look for Russia to arm its pilots, too "

With MUCH LESS hassle then here...

Wait till the Chechens get their Nuclear bomb from the Iranians . Russians building their reactor for them so they can make bombs, What the hell is Russia thinking about?

A second Chechen woman, named as S Djerbikhanova, was initially booked on another flight to the Black Sea resort of Sochi which was due to carry more than 300 passengers. During check-in, she changed her ticket to the less popular evening flight.

Wonder why? To aid in a hijack attempt, the fewer passengers the better?

I flew round trip from Louisville to St Louis last week. I was searched (patted down) each time even though I have blonde hair, blue eyes, and was traveling on official Army business with a Department of the Army ID card. The searcher in St Louis even went so far as to have me step into a closed off area so he could further inspect my fly as I had on Levi 501's with metal buttons. I think it is past time to start profiling, especially since there were two men of obvious middle east origing, they were speaking Arabic, behind me in line and they went straight through.

I remember the "black widows" in the Moscow theater attack..They had on suicide bomb belts but were gassed...I have no doubt they would do this.

In the Civil War, the Lincoln administration *never* to my knowledge admitted that the Confederacy was a separate country. That didn't stop Lincoln from ordering General Sherman to cut a scorched-earth swath through Georgia. The Russians can profile Chechnyans and/or Muslims all they want, IMO.

Yep, I think it's time for a little "guilt by association" to force the Muslim world to take out the trash. After all, it is their problem.
