Steph... makes me just want to go buy a ticket and fly the friendly skies. NOT!!!

This is not good news, especially with info of more planned attacks using airplanes. Looks like I am going to have to retract my statement I made in another thread now.

I was thinking the same thing Lindaloo. I just don't get it!

I also don't get why the terror alert level hasn't been raised either. We used to do it after any piece of information about a possible attack came out. :?:

The terror alert has probably not been raised because it is an airport security thing. Now that makes sense as to why they are pulling Air Marshalls and laying off airport screeners. sheesh.
