So we are all stuck between power hungry money lusting world leaders and insane terrorists...GAAAAAAAAH!
When did any of this benefit anyone?!
I'm starting to believe all of this is a big plot between Bin Laden and George Bush, so they can own the world and control us ALL the time.
Flying without hand luggage is hell.

Am I just a horrible cynic?
I watched the news yesterday, with John Reid on one hand saying they had caught the major players in the "alleged" plot, and on the other hand ABSOLUTELY EVERYONE being searched and having their possessions removed. It all seemed horribly PR and scare-tacticary to me and all I could think was, well, they managed to knock Isreal / Lebanon / Iraq off the front pages for a day or two so we wont protest for a while. _________________ "fashioned by the blade of a world that doesn't care,

Of course they want to scare us. Frightened people use their brains less.

You mean the people they'd been following for over a year but have only just decided to bring in? _________________ "fashioned by the blade of a world that doesn't care,

Disco, get a grip, I meant the powers...it was a response to Kinkster.
I'm not ruling out that your suspicion might be right K, because similiar things have been done throughout history.

one way to hurt the economy of a country is to put people off flying to/holidaying in that country |

I know you meant "the powers". I wasn't replying to your post, anyway. |

I would say that a better way to hurt the economy of a country is to go to an impossible war that costs more a day in money and lives than a few planes not flying. _________________ "fashioned by the blade of a world that doesn't care,

that's one sides' foolish business. It remains that they're not unopposed physically, as you know quite well, and the 'other side' don't always have the same resources and do what they can to strike back. It's not just a few planes not flying, either. |

No apology needed. Easy mistake, etc |
