The Homeland Security Secretary, Janet Napolitano, has finally admitted to a disturbing reality. Airline security failed when Mutallab carrying explosives on a watch list(although he was not on " a no fly list" like he should have been) was able to board a U.S. airliner bound for Detroit. Secretary Napolitano, we can not afford to have airline security fail on us? I am glad you admitted to the reality we are experiencing. Namely, that airline security needs to be drastically improved. But, now that you have come to the realization that airline security has failed us, what are you going to do about it so that the NWA incident does not ever happen again? Was not 9/11 a big enough wake up call for airline security to never fail us again? Apparently not.

What are they going to do about it? Why, they are going to make everyone stay in their seats for the last hour, that's what. I feel all hopenchangey just thinking about it.
Sadly, he was able to buy a ticket with cash and board with no checked baggage. Had this been an El Al flight, he would have been flagged for additional screening. Racial profiling gets a lot of heat, but behavior profiling, which El Al security does before every Israel bound flight, is the real ticket to airline security.
