SECURITY ON AIRPLANES
You and your guest both accomplished a great deal in terms of misleading your listeners when you were referring to the travesties on 9-11. It makes most everything else you talked about suspect, such as when you refer to 19 hijackers, and linked the travesty only to foreign terrorists, etc. C'mon, folks. Where have you been? This also included your discussion of Muslims, both American and European, as if the tragedies of 9-11 were caused by Muslims. Utterly dreadful the way you dealt with this. There is a huge amount of information out there now that completely disqualifies nearly every word you said, both of you, about 9-11. Shame...
It is indeed a nearly complete insult to the American people, and to many others that we are put through the circus called TSA security checks at airports. The amount of money spent to taunt us and also make us think we are more secure because we have to turn in a tube of toothpaste, or turn in our mascara, and I could go on and on and on, defies words. And of course, if one challenges any of this, one is threatened with possible arrest and most certainly lengthy detainment while one is further insulted but in private rooms or possibly even cells (remember the passenger---young mom who died while in handcuffs???)
This interview was a large disappointment to me. Could have been handled with much more accuracy and gained far more credibility.
That said, the idea of actually seeing just how thorough things are through TSA and their protocols is worthwhile.
