Airlines, and security personnel have a lot to answer for....far too shy about confronting real threats. We got pulled up a few years ago, flight to the US, as coming up positive on a swab - for explosives - un-f-ing-believeable. LOL, it was actually my wife who came up positive on a swab of her clothing. So we got pulled aside, questioned, bags examined...etc....all beyond stupid.

But doubt they have the bravery to target the minorities who are out to kill us. Anyway, long time ago....and I couldn't give a rats. Assad/Kim can pull up with a container full of Sarin into New York and set if off...and the world will still micky-mouse about air transport threats.... We were warned after they failed to find anything, that we could expect more in SYD on our way to SFO - but it didn't happen. Our trip went as planned. Our bozos should get jobs with Circus S......
