    Uh, are these in the air, or found before they took off?

    Glad we don't need all of those Airport security that are being fired ... so we can buy $50,000 trash trucks in Iraq.

    The notes seem to indicate that this is not terrorism, since the notes seem to be critical of the level of airport security.

    Looks like a "test" to see if these items could get on the planes. They did. They found them on the terminating end of the flights in the lavatory.
