What gets me

First who flew those planes? Second, Why Boston? NYC has many major airports around. Why Box cutters, doesn't this Al Quaida have a fortune? Couldn't better weapons be used? Box Cutters? Give me a break.

i think they used the box cutters scenario because this is an innocuous item and it ups the paranoia factor. it also lends itself to the fact that this new terrorism is stateless, omniscent, and can strike at any time.

I wonder what the theory is behind the pilots. Since I heard 8 of the 9 pilots where found alive. How cool it is to find a passport near a landing gear. I guess ALAH wants to know who they are. Passports! Yes, that is you, this way to 27 Virgins.
