“The FBI is examining the latest bomb to see whether it could have passed through airport security and brought down an airplane, officials said. They said the device did not contain metal, meaning it probably could have passed through an airport metal detector. “
What a coincidence. That was the plot of ACT OF VALOR.
The terrorists wore suicide vests made with ceramic ball bearings to avoid metal detectors.

It’s not immediately clear what happened to the alleged bomber.
That’s because they detonated the bomb while he was wearing it I hope.

At first I thought Bill Clinton had tried to take another tax write-off for a charitable donation of his underwear again.

We should investigate whether the CIA was racially profiling. I suspect so....

Maybe the threat of implanted Plastic explosive bombs that came out a week or two back, were in regards to this so called incident?

why say anything at all? It has come to the point in time that I do not believe ANYTHING anymore from this MSM or this White House. Here's the answer.
The FBI is examining the latest bomb to see whether it could have passed through airport security and brought down an airplane, officials said. They said the device did not contain metal, meaning it probably could have passed through an airport metal detector. But it was not clear whether new body scanners used in many airports would have detected it.
Next article: "Study finds full body scanners effective in finding recent bomb, pat-downs failed."
At which point they will be able to demand that everyone consent to use them or not fly. (You can make a study suggest anything.) They will take advantage of every possible opportunity to advance their agenda.

I want to know who writes this stuff. Flammable underwear is "ambitious"? Sorry. In my book, "Nuking New York" is ambitious...just like 10 megatons is a "weapon of mass destruction", not pipe bombs. But I guess that's just me.
