Have been watching this whole incident with the latest atempted bomber and the thread it inspired and i have been wondering why no one has asked "did they even CARE if it took down the plane?". Hell you could do almost as much damage to people's mental states in the US (especially but england and some other countries) right now with a smoke bomb and a party poper. You now arnt alowed to even go to the toilet with in an hour of landing and god knows what other restictions have been put in place. So why would a terrorist organisation go to the trouble and expense of launching a real atack when they can just launch a piss poor imitation now and have the same or greater effect?
