So, in light of the Nigerian guy who
tried to blow up a US airliner on Christmas Day (with about the same success as Richard Reid, the shoebomber), I have a few speculative questions.
- Will the US have to invade Nigeria now?
- Will carry-on luggage be outlawed?
- Will the best selling t-shirt of 2010 be "I've got a bomb in my pants!"?
- Will airport security personnel now need to be trained chemists?
- Does airport security actually accomplish anything?
- What's the point of having a no-fly list if not all the terrorists are on it?
- Can I wear shorts to get through the security gate faster? Underwear?
- Can we stop pretending that any current wars have any impact on terrorism?
- What happens when Al-Qaeda successfully recruits a bitter white guy from Cincinnati to detonate a bomb that he swallowed hours earlier?
