What do you mean "how many do you think we planned?" We didn't plan any terrorist attacks on our own planes or people so what does that mean?

And I'll tell you I highly doubt we stopped any because of new security. If terrorists want to get us, they will figure out a way. It's not really hard when the news continues to publish the military's TTPs and operation schedule. I'm sure the security thwarts some terrorists but we are behind the power curve on the airport security. We're too reactive, and not proactive but that's because they are an evolving bunch the terrorists who hate us.

I honestly don't care if I have to go through the scanner to get home for Christmas. I'll do it. Doesn't bother me a bit. I'm just saying that the security really isn't going to stop someone if they want to get on a plane plus they're probably now looking elsewhere since Wikileaks so graciously posted the 'hit list' of critical infrastructure points.

Precicely. PLUS until i see x terrorist captured who has documented info on 'mission xyz canceled due to heightened security at airports, mission TUV canceled for same reason, go with option PRQ" i won't give any creadence to people who blabber about
"What about those we may have stopped"?

How the heck can we ever know that we stopped them???

I knew it was a matter of time before they went to the mail. Not strip searching yet. I don't see how showing a photo ID will stop bombs from getting in the mail though... Well since the terrorists have an easy job of getting fake ids, or use some of our states which allow illegals to get proper ones (just so we do't stop them getting needed services) i can't see this doing anything.
