U.S. Security Experts Asleep At The Wheel

Despite all the new threats coming from U.S. Intelligence, Air Marshals are being pulled from key flights as of August. The question is why?

My guess is that common sense has been thrown out with the baby and the bathwater. We make all this fuss about needing to be security consciences, and yet we do dumb things like this. Shoot. Why don't we just invite al-Quada over and hand them the keys to the ignition of every jumbo jet at Logan?

This is typical of the U.S. - scare the crap out of everyone with "intelligence", but don't raise the terror threat level or beef up security. In fact, just lower security all around. While were at it, let's start selling Nike's with compartments for shoe bombs.

I don't care if the reasoning is simply a nudge and a wink to al-Quada that says, "Hey, we know what's up." It terrorizes people in this country when it's done. Rather than saving a few bucks, just take the precautions and make it difficult over all to hi-jack anything to begin with.
