There's something going on. Remember how the Feds considered restricting foreign flights on September 11?

Now this.

Is this true, or another alarmist, unverifiable internet myth?

Interesting, I wonder how big of a potential threat stingers or missiles fired from private aircraft could be?

They dragged their feet for a year over arming pilots after rescinding the right of a pilot to go armed, but somehow it's okay to blow an airliner out of the sky instead? What a pile of jackasses we have in congress.

Gee I thought the Homeland Czar would be in charge of this. Shows the stupidity of adding another cabinet level position. After all, Rumsfeld is the Secretary of Defense. Perhaps he should be made the Secretary of Offense. Who will handle special teams?
