The tug of war between terrorists and security agencies will be always there. What could be really sad is acknowledging the fact that terrorists could have the lead in that highly dangerous game. So far, security agencies are only reacting by taking precautionary measures to thwart terrorist acts similar to those which happened in the past.
Detroit’s last terrorist attempt proved that the system failed even to be proactive when it carelessly ignored valuable pieces of intelligence. No wonder that President Obama bluntly admitted that the system screwed up.
Terror is a deadly activity between the terrorists who seemingly know how to deal with scanning machines, and security agencies which are not subject to the humiliating effect of the scanning machines. The only victims are the innocent air travelers.
