Good eye Helmut - German soldier finds suspicious items in Ramstein refugee baggage

[Just The News] A male Afghan refugee who was departing the Ramstein Air Base in Germany for the United States was detained Monday after it was discovered during pre-flight screening that he had blasting caps and other explosives materials in his carry-on luggage, three U.S. officials told Just the News.
Items in the graphic are representative of the items found.
The man, who was born in the early 1990s and an Afghan citizen, was working as contractor for the U.S. government when he was evacuated, and officials believe the materials were related to his work and not terrorism, officials said.

Nonetheless, the man was placed on a restricted list and prevented from traveling to the U.S., according to a Transportation Security Administration summary of the incident obtained by Just the News. "Subject has been moved to a 'red list' and will not travel to the U.S." and U.S. air marshals were advised, the TSA memo stated.

Screeners, including a member of the German military assisting the U.S. at the Air Force base in Germany, found five blasting caps, one igniter switch, a "def cord" and one shock tube when the refugee was apprehended late Monday morning German time, according to officials and the TSA summary report.

#1 WHAT IF ....Looking down a DC Scenario Road considered by many well traveled.

Everyone ask yourselves how many did we "accidentally" bring into the USA?

Now remind yourselves.
The 20th anniversary of 9-11 is 3 days away.

BTW: Don't narrowly think Suicide Vest application.
Think larger applications. Like a Semi-hauling Hazmat Class 2 Fuel or Inhalation Hazard or Class 7 Radioactive materials for Dirty Waste scenario.

The one thing I learned from having worked around some extremely talented personnel, who were actually paid to think Morbidly Abnormal regarding Security and then plan for it is:

If you can imagine it, someone is already trying to work it out and do it. Therefore we must beat them to the goal line.

#7 ^ goes without saying. Thing is, well... Garland, TX. We're not trying to beat em -anyone- "to the punch" anymore. Why? The results are considered to be of more value. It's that simple.
