“my sense of it is truly, that we are in the middle of a gigantic corporate hostile takeover struggle. the lines are blurred because heck, one corporation looks much like any other. nationalism, religion and any other ideology only applies in that it can be exploited, manipulated, used.

“Uh, yeah. Isn't it though? Which makes the perpetrator seem like even more of a patsy. "They" deliberately equipped him with a _bomb that would malfunction. How said, that anyone believes they really need to pull of this kind of charade...

Which brings up the following interesting point.
This effort -- like that of the "shoe _bomber" a few years ago -- seems fairly typical of recent efforts. I draw a couple of conclusions from this.
1) Either they are somehow "orchestrated" by Western security/i
2) If the second part of 1) is true, then _Nine_Eleven was ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE beyond anything they've managed to "accomplish" before or since. If this is the case, shouldn't it make us at least A LITTLE SUSPICIOUS that there were other factors involved?.

“Al-Qaeda has gotten weaker enlight of the wars in Pakistan and in Afghanistan. There too busy running for their lives. The net is pretty tight ,however cracks do occur so in this situation this was a case of a crack in our net.
Many conspiracy theorists out there. I don't believe them. I have seen evidence all are hogwash or It doesn't make sense.”

“Answers:
1) Yes. This guy was easily let on the airplane. I can't get on with gel!
2) If you understood who really did 9.1.1., then what happened on the plane is no surprise, but expected.
The government needs to have fear in our citizens to use our tax money for wars. These moneys make military contractors, like Cheney, big time $$$.
Word on the streets is that Cheney is already up 1.5 billion through Halliburton war contracts.
Just follow the money.”

“"Security theater" -- that's an apt phrase for the US approach. Make a big production out of it AFTER the fact. It's a form of covering their collective _ass, I suppose...

“How else do you discourage would-be terrorists from trying to sneak contraband through the airport without actually TRYING (and failing) to do so?
You make the airport security atmosphere as theatrically secure as possible, seems perfectly reasonable seeing as how they couldn't have changed EVERYTHING immediately, how are we going to discourage a follow-up before new technology gets in place?
We make a show of how concerned we are about air travel, that's about all we can do.”

“That's a good point. No race or religious has a monopoly on whackos, that's for sure. And white males are certainly at the top of the list where, for example, serial _killing is involved. And they've done their bit for _terrorism as well. That said, Muslim extremists probably are currently the biggest SINGLE threat to airline. No point in carrying political correctness to absurd extremes..
