Implanted human body bombs?

[Bill Cravener]

I remember back in 2006 reading about drug smugglers getting caught smuggling surgically implanted heroin inside of live puppies. If the drug smugglers thought of implanting drugs inside of animals is it not logical that suicide bombers would think to implant bombs inside of their own bodies? Soon on top of full body scans the TSA will be X-raying folks before each flight.

Suicide bomb breast implant hysteria? Yep, there are some women that could really pack a wallop! :bg

You know you are in trouble when you see a veiled Islamic looking lady with hairly legs and an AK47 under her long dress. Now RE: breast implants made of plastic explosive, who would be willing to do the breast squeezing test at airport security ?  :P

999 days out of a thousand, that would be an interesting job
that 1 day could really suck, though   :P

Actually the idea has great potential, get a really skinny guy willing to look for a fast trip to his 1000 virgins, really pad him up with big boobs, a broad bum and fat legs and you could probably load him with 100 kilos of semtex. Now the solution if this style of sacrifice becomes common is to develop a technique to detonate the semtex remotely and with any who have to be screened make them walk out into a big open area then hit the remote trigger. If he/she is not loaded, nothing happens, if they are they go to their virgins with a really big bang without injuring anyone.

Now genuine justice would be that when he arrived at his 1000 virgins, he still has the implants so he looks like a big fat lady.  :P

Many U.S. air travelers are already less than happy about new, more aggressive airport security measures. Wired states that the Department of Homeland Security is currently on watch for jihadists from al-Qaida and other organizations that are preparing to sew human body bombs under their skin on the way to martyrdom. This is really good news, DHS claims. I found this here: Body bombs are good news, says DHS

What an unusual link. Whether I accept the premise or not, immunisation inflicted at a government level would have to be classed as risky when big PHARMA are involved. Lucky for my generation that this stuff did not exist and the immunisations of my youth in the 1950s have not killed me (polio and a few others) yet. The full 3D body scans sound like a scam to collect data on large numbers of the population. If I have one area of mistruct, its the "World Health Organisation" and for that matter ANY "World [whatever] Organisation" and I will never subscribe to any form of World Government that these organisations support.

Ha,...Ha,...Ha,...You know,...I think this is how Tom Clancy got his start,...a wild idea,...a national bestseller,...and, before you know it,...terrorists worldwide are highjacking your technique and indoctrinating their jihadists in their training camps with it,...
