Again;
You cant just do anything under the name of 'war against terror'. Besides, it wont stop terrorists or wannabe terrorists from carrying bombs and wanting to blow up planes and attack. Its impossible to seal everything waterproof. If a terrorist wants to do something, he'll find a way, if there are body scanners or no bodyscanners, he will still find a way.
So please let them not be stupid by introducing such BS measures, they should rather strengthen their own ing intelligence agencies. I mean, the Nigerian guy, even his father came two months before it happened to warn the USA about his son. If their intelligence and their administration was strengthened and proper it would not have happened at all. But if these scanners were placed two months ago, it still would have happened.
But isnt this probably more about interest some people and key figures have by implementing such rules? I bet alot of people and contractors make big in money out of these scanners, and with scaring the people, they almost force them to get these scanners under the name of 'war against terror'.
Its just insane, unbelievable...But hey, who cares? they are going to do it anyway, nobody will stop them because in the name of 'war against terror' they can do everything they want, and still get away with it. Something we've seen alot since 9/11.
