Explosive device set off aboard airliner


Earlier today they said at first it was fireworks and then later a firecracker and now "a small explosive device". Sounds to me like security somewhere was taking a holiday for the holidays. :oops:
 
The internet said that NO Explosive device was detonated. So much for correct reporting. Wonder which is true?

Never heard that one at all today. Everything I saw/read said there was something set off.

Two Questions:
1. Why is Obama making statements in this matter???
2. How did they get a bomb by Scamland security???

1. Why wouldn't the president make a statement about something that affects the safety and security of the American public? I mean it WAS being treated as a terrorist action.

2. The flight originated in Amsterdam,The Netherlands. Ask their "scamland" security.
 
Story I read said it was an Islamic Nigerian national and he was quickly tackled when he tried to light "the device".

Did Harper make a statement?

Probably too smart to run his mouth and make hay out of it.

The flight originated in the Netherlands and was landing in Detroit MI. so if you had read the article that Hamer posted you could have avoided this waste of bandwidth.
 
Yep, just another excuse to put the screws to all of us Americans that are "suspected terrorists"

The Department of Homeland Security issued a statement Friday saying that air passengers "may notice additional screening measures put into place to ensure the safety of the traveling public on domestic and international flights."

Accept the police state for your own good.

Sounds like another mentally ill person patsy.

You think obama is trying to cook up a crisis to handle?

Why would Harper make a statement? The air carrier was a US based company and as such falls under US jurisdiction.

And please, do not assume Harper is too smart for anything. I'm sure he has to have people to tie his shoes for him. :D
 
A fact of our ignorance re Harper.

I bet you were the only one that knew who I referred to.

Many here cannot name the vice-president or the Speaker of The House.

Ever hear of the game show Street Smarts?
