attacks to follow

In a statement released today by al Qaeda a stern warning is placed on travel with all western airlines. Attacks, they say, will commence in the near future and will be spectacular.

"All compounds, bases and means of transport, especially Western and American airlines, will be a direct target for our coming operations in the near future,"

"We also warn security forces and guards of Crusader (Western) compounds and American bases and all those who stand with America, its agents.. and the tyrants of the Saudi government, and urge them to repent,"

There hundreds of methods to sabotage an aeroplane , even if you board unarmed. They are completely unsafe in the face of al Qaeda techniques.

The fuselage can be pierced in many places resulting in depressurisation and immediate loss of control. The nervework of electronic bundles that are strung through the passenger area (just above the head of an attacker and under their feet) control flight and gagues without which the jet will not fly. The crew in the passenger area are also completely vulnerable to many forms of personal and deadly attack.

But you don't even have to go in the toilet and puncture the fuselage, rip out strategic electronics, or introduce a deadly toxin to kill everyone on the plane who breaths the central air supply. Just "soup-up" your mobile phone and watch what happens on the cockpit when you turn it on! It's the best jamming device when properly modified. Do you think al Qaeda are on to that? With a properly designed electronic system in a device no bigger than a laptop and lookin exactly like one, inside and out, you could almost fly the plane by remote control.

A small fire from paper and cloth near the emergency oxygen tanks? An electronic tricker, as used to jam jackpot machines in Las Vegas, would cause the cargo doors to open while at max height. Any of the above would result in a sudden and complete loss of control and a catastrophic crash.

Indeed it is no more difficult to "stop" a jet airliner than it is to stop a train by pulling the emergency cord, except when a plane "stops" it doesn't sit on the tracks until the police come to arrest the messer.

Stay away from western airlines and well away from all Americans and others involved in the Crusade ! .........and enjoy your flight .
