Um, what? What exactly are they winning? You think they're whole plan is to make life in the US annoying?

What exactly do you think their ends are?

Economics cost. One underwear bomb = tens of millions ++++ in staff, equipment, and inefficiency. After we are all body cavity searched at the air port, its time for a train attack....

Those aren't "ends". Those are "means".

They've stated their goals.

Its the US presence diminished in the world and out of the Middle East.

They can accomplish that by removing our ability to wage a protracted occupation overseas.

They even documented step by step how Americans would react and we read it and then did exactly what they planned.

As a semi-off topic note, I'll post this request:

There have been reports about this thread. At the moment, I don't see it necessary to do anything about them.

That said, if you feel a thread or post is Hellfire worthy: Please just PM a mod or report it. Deciding that you need to make a post in the thread commenting on the Hellfire worthiness of the comment just derails the topic more, and makes more of a mess to clean up or move if we need to.

If anything we have a stronger presence in the middle east. We are somewhat diminished, but that is not at all due to them.

They are not winning.

Uh oh. Turkey now chasing me with tennis ball serving machine.

TSA scans me, misses ax, but dentist spots a cracked molar. Scanners pick up on tennis blaster. Turkey arrested. All is well.

I'm hugely amused by the idea that the terrorists are winning if we get our nuts felt in the airport.

And Khross, I think your protest would eb a lot more entertaining if you went... "regimental style" with a kilt. You could say "I'm here to view the TAPESTRIES!!"

Some of you might like to know that lube is not limited to 3 oz in carry-on luggage. :)
