More Terror in the Skies

From the Washington Times:
Flight crews and air marshals say Middle Eastern men are staking out airports, probing security measures and conducting test runs aboard airplanes for a terrorist attack.

At least two midflight incidents have involved numerous men of Middle Eastern descent behaving in what one pilot called "stereotypical" behavior of an organized attempt to attack a plane.

"No doubt these are dry runs for a terrorist attack," an air marshal said.

Pilots and air marshals who asked to remain anonymous told The Washington Times that surveillance by terrorists is rampant, using different probing methods.

Matt's Chat

While Annie Jacobson's story turned out to be nothing, what about these other stories?

I do think it is entirely possible that terrorists are probing our defenses. We keep hearing chatter involving airliners so this does make some sense.

This should serve as yet another wake-up call for Homeland Security...
