Security? What Security!

December 29, 2009 7:23 am

Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab is a Nigerian man, who attempted to blow up an airliner flying between Schipol Airport at Amsterdam and Detroit.

The fact that he got as far as he did is a complete failure of security.

• He had been put on a security watch list.
• He bought a ticket from Ghana to Detroit in cash.
• He was making a two week trip to the United States with hand baggage only.
• He had visited countries like Yemen.

But he was allowed to board the plane with virtually no security at Schipol, when he transferred to the Detroit flight. 

Any of the facts above, should have meant that he was properly searched.  But then we don’t do profiling, as it might upset some people.

So now we have the knee-jerk reaction by governments to add more levels of security, which will result in large queues in terminals all over the world.  As Patrick Mercer, has just said on television, that will create a nice soft targets for these lunatics.
