#3 The flaming syringe was a chemical fuse for the bomb.
This guy had 80 grams in his pants and the bomb that nearly nailed the Saudi Minister of counterterrorism and public relations had 100 grams in his underwear...I guess PETN is pretty powerful stuff.

#5 Do I detect soiled underwear? Jasper Schuringa prevented this from becoming a disaster as anyone. He is a hero. The administration said it was an isolated terrorist incident and that the system worked. What a load of crap we are ~~spooned~~ shoveled up and expected to believe.

It is my understand that the Netherlands does not permit the use of US Air Marshalls.

#7 This is a great time to tell that Netherlands that there will be Air Marshalls on US bound flights or there will be no flights at all.

Given the number of Dutch on that flight, I suspect it would not meet with alot of objections.

Definitely. This was profiling.

Another case of 'flying while Muslim with a flaming high explosive tucked between your legs.'

#10 Air Marshalls on US bound flights

Could US Air Marshalls do any better than Mr. S did, or would they get analysis paralysis as they radioed in a "potential situation" in to headquarters for authorization to remove flaming object from pants?

Angry passengers seem to be our best insurance against terrorists on board to date.

Im not trying to be fresh, just wondering what the SOP on use of force by Air Marshall look like? Does anyone definitively know what a Marshall can and can't do?

#11 That's likely sensitive information, GirlT.

#12 Yes, the mystique of the Air Marshall, I forgot momentarily. Like taxpayers would ever be permitted to know what protections their money is buying.

You cant fool all the people all the time, but those aren't the ones to concentrate on.

#14 I think Jasper should have given the syringe backjust like the way I use a syringe every evening: into the abdomen.

#15 Screw the rules, this dutch guy deserves a center-fold spread in Real B*lls magazine.
