The current law requires the US Dept of Homeland Security receive an Advanced Passenger Information List before the flight takes off.
Well, Sis..... get this....I'm only interested in the plot that involves my plane while it is airborne!!!!
Now, do you get the picture?
How about a simple call to aircraft pilot - “potential terrorist in seat 19A - black male - watch him closely - physically constrain at your own discretion”
Because the father had already reported him to CIA!! He was allowed on the plane anyway with no passport (according to some sources). This is all about “we didn’t know” as I see it.
Well, you make more sense, but I do like my atomic powered scenario all the same :)
I think this action will encourage, no enbrazen pilots, crew and passengers to be very pro-active from this point on since they are the boots on the plane and the BO admin. isn’t condoning anything but secrecy regarding “isolated human attacks”.
Beware, terrorists. It’s coming to a plane near YOU!
If this is true and they failed to notify the pilot they are incompetent. And even after the incident, they did not notify other planes in the air. Secrecy is the earmark of this administration. Nobody needs to know anything, except them. I think this should be an impeachable offense.
I won’t believe this until Jesse Ventura confirms it.
They’ll just walk it back until they say they knew about the entire plot all along. Also, that it would fail and that this was really all some “test” to see how passengers would react.
Interesting. They were ready to interrogate him prior to the attempted bombing of a civilian target. They are self constrained from interrogating him after the event took place.
Operation Free Fall.
After the Captain has been notified, the First Officer will contact the Flight Attendant charged with the task of throwing terrorist from the plane. What we have not been told is that underneath each seat is a trap door which opens at the press of a button.
Individual seats, entire rows, or even sections can be history faster than one can say “Terrorist? What terrorist?”
It’s not rocket science. :-)
Huh? Way after the fact they try to feed us this story to show us *the system worked*? CYA, IMHO.
Hey, nice breaking story ya got here!
There is a book or a movie in our future. I can just feel it.
Very interesting. Thanks for posting.
I found the guy who was going to interview him:

KATRINA KATRINA KATRINA
“came close to stopping”
Somebody better tell the current administration that “close” just doesn’t count. No, not even “really, really close.”
WOW....What happened to the rest of the thread???
It was sent to bloggers, then back to breaking news, now half the thread is missing?
lol...
Clearly this was handled much much better than Bush would have done it and the lad has apologized so I think its all ok now
