I've looked Ray. There was no noble intent.

What there was, was a percieved discrimination to passengers heading
for the US and a perception of guilt. that was all tied up in a nice
package called "privacy concerns" that Americans should not feal as if
they had less privacy at airports than other who used the airports.
This "invasion of person" on foreign soil could only be sold to
Americans if all others using the airport were subject to the same
invasions, hence the call for blanket screening for all.

That's noble intent. Why is privacy not an issue? Why is
discrimination not an issue? You're an odd fellow, John. When it comes
to Americans, your rules change.

So tell me Ray, given all these facts, how is it a Dutch failure?

Until now, I never said it was. I said it was the US decision not to
allow JUST Americans to be searched.

Yup, i've been an odd fellow all my life. Never liked to hang with
your kind of sheep. Never liked to toe the line. Never followed orders
blindly. Always asked difficult questions. Always dug for answers.
Never took anything on faith.

. . . and always looked the fool. But I still like you, John.

"The Dutch were responsible for letting
this guy through. End of story, mate."

Hmmm

Oh, come on, John. We're discussing the installation of the scanners
and you want to harp on that single incident yet again. What are we
discussing? Is it the scanners or the bomb attempt? Make up your mind.
