Snakes on a Plane...

It has happened yet again. Yet another group of middle easterners acted up on the very same Northwest Airlines flight from Amsterdam to Detroit that the Crotch Bomber was on. And there was another incident on an Airtran flight last week as well as Delta flight 2485 where a Palestinian started saying he wanted to kill all the Jews as the flight started taxiing for takeoff. And of course there is the unconfirmed report that there was a second, unnamed bomber on NWA 253 on Christmas Day. And of course we cannot forget the case of AirTran flight 297, which is starting to look a lot like a bunch of other recent flights.

I'm really starting to see a pattern here....

Maggie Thornton reports that there is some concern within the CIA that this rash of airline attempts is an attempt to clog the intelligence pipeline such that we are so busy trying to separate the wheat from the chaff that we miss the nuke being shipped in in a seagoing container... or some other big ticket attack.
