Default terrorist threat on US flights

So what is it with all those terrorist threats to the US flight?
Wouldn't you think that Al Qaeda is not that stupid and try the same
plane thingy again? I guess they are ****ting themselves laughing.

Cheers,
TBD!

They are opportunists. If they see a weakness in security, along with
timing for maximum impact they will sieze it.

Maybe so, but your premise is faulty. Al Quaida has a long
history of using the same methods and going for the same targets.
Remember, they first attacked the World Trade Center several
years before 9/11.


A long history? Twice in eight years makes a long history? Same
methods? Are a truck bomb and hijacked airliner the same method?
Your brain is faulty.

"Casey" with the help of 999 monkeys eventually
managed to type:

You could stand to do a bit more reading on the topic of Al Quaida and
their methods before flying off the handle. Would you care for some
pointers to good resources?
