The Department of Homeland Security issued a notice yesterday regarding insulated beverage containers. Apparently they “got wind” of a possible threat that would involve concealment of explosives in thermos.
This got me thinking; a while back I remember hearing that Osama Bin Laden had said that his Al Qaeda organization didn’t have to continue to attack the United States, that his goal was to bankrupt us and I think he is on the right track.
Seriously, have someone sneak some liquid explosives in a bottle onto a plane and viola we cannot bring anything larger than 3 ounces on board. Get one person to stick a piece of plastic up this butt and now we have x-ray machines and body scans at the airport. The plan is simplistic but very effective, slowly but surely they will make our lives miserable. Wait until they think of the next thing, you will have to submit yourself for a strip search, body cavity probe and GOD knows what else.
Really there is no need for any large-scale attack, the simplest ideas appear to be the most effective.
