Interesting ... what prevents a terrorist from hiding an IED in his
stomach, or some other body cavity? What if it's a bomb that
detonates on contact with acid, and he encloses it in a membrane and
swallows it an hour before the flight? If the membrane dissolves in,
say, three hours, he explodes while the flight is over the Atlantic.
No gels or liquids required.

a bomb could be hidden up a muslims butthole and have a timer attached
which disolves on eating a vindaloo curry and splatters the passengers
when it goes off

the baggage handlers at HRW and elsewhere will be thieving all the
phones and digital cameras galore ,nothing will be safe from them .

Bush wanted the over reaction. Look there was no terror plot. Bush
needed some reason to justify the killing of thousands of innocent
Islamic children and women by the Jews in Lebanon

And Hezbollah started this by crossing over into Israel and kidnapping
Israeli soldiers. . . .

Now that the pipeline in Alaska is broke, the gas prices will rise and
the economy will tank, Bush needs someone to blame. So he went after
the Muslims again

Of course! No wonder we are having problems. It is all Bush's fault.

Now it will be the terrorists fault when the economy tanks, and the
Jews can continue on their murderous rampages

Right. Absolutely. It is all the Jews' fault - for existing!

You are an idiot.

Duty-free booze is dead, as you will never again be allowed to bring

significant
reduction in revenue for certain countries.

Forget about bringing any liquid or semi-liquid substance onboard a
plane again, including toothpaste.

I wonder if the airlines are smart enough to stock more water and
food to make up for passengers not being able to bring their own.
Not to mention that fact that it must be free, because passengers no
longer have an option to bring their own.

The authorities have overreacted by banning reading material. It is
not possible to store liquids in a magazine and books can easily be
checked by fanning through the pages.

Even more so than usual, I'd hate to be someone who has to wear
a colostomy bag.

First I was thinking of how ludicrous it was for the security people to keep
trying to react to every new possibility.

Then I was thinking in terms of concealing explosive liquids. Do the implant.
Wait a year to recover fully. Then use a hypodermic needle to do the fluid
swap.

Why would they need to "recover fully"?
It's not like they are going to care about their health issues when
blowing themselves up.

I think he means to recover at least enough so that it doesn't look
like they've had something implanted.

To take it further, why not have a device implanted in your body
cavity detonated remotely? How many people have pacemakers and other
things in them?

That's quite a retaliation for a couple of kidnappings. But I've
already pointed out how Israel always overreacts.

Funny, I had heard it was Hamas that had kidnapped 2 Israeli soldiers
who were in Gaza ( a territory that was handed back to palestine) and
Israel then started to bomb Lebanon to pieces to prevent Hamas from
handing them to Hezbollah who would then send them to Syria. (which si
why Israel started by bombing civilian infrastructure such as airports
and bridges).

Obviously, different media in the world report this very differently.

Israel doesn't care whether it helps; it is purely an uncontrolled
emotional reaction. Israel believes that it has God's will on its
side. And it knows that it has the United States' wallet (and perhaps
more than that).

If you were the one kidnapped, you wouldn't think they were overreacting.
The Hizbollochs knew the Israelis would react, but as usual, they
underestimated their willpower to punish terrorist ragheads

The opinions of anyone influenced by emotion are suspect.
