Umm he went through security overseas, so how do they know our machines need to be upgraded? (the fact that they actually do is secondary)
They will use this incident to make the full body scanners mandatory at all airports.

The only way the system worked is if there was a secret detonator disabler at the gate.
Joking aside, it appears that this explosive is relatively easy to ignite and after all, there was some kind of initiation.
I wonder if the components or blend was not right.

Fix the system.
Raise taxes.

Whatever list he was on needs to be added to the NO-Fly list. At the very least we need to start profiling and doing more questioning and searching of all young muslim sounding or look young men.

Early Dutchman reports said he saw a **sophisticated DEVICE** on this lab, and not something like a BAG of mixed chemicals.

Well at least in four years the wounded passengers and the victims on the ground will have free healthcare.

No one knows the well dressed "mystery man" was who accompanied Abdulmuttalab on the flight. I'm not buying the official story he acted alone.
