Terrorist laptop bombs could evade airport security: US intel

Daesh (ISIL) and other terrorist groups have come up with ways to hide bombs in electronic devices and make them more difficult to be detected by airport security, US intelligence officials warn.

According to the FBI, terrorists have been testing their new bombs against airport security equipment they have obtained to increase their chances of evading security checkpoints and boarding the planes, CNN reported Friday.

The administration of US President Donald Trump’s decision to ban travelers flying out of 10 airports in eight Middle Eastern and African countries from carrying laptops and other large electronic devices was based on intelligence gathered over the past months, the report noted.

Earlier this month, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced a ban on large electronic devices from cabin baggage in Jordan, Qatar, Kuwait, Morocco, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Egypt.
The remains of a laptop bombs used in a 2013 terror attack against a hotel in Mogadishu, Somalia.

The measure came after the department claimed that terrorists are seeking "innovative methods" to bring down passenger planes amid fears that bombs could be hidden in laptops, tablets, cameras, DVD players and electronic games.

Based on the FBI’s tests late last year, the new laptop bombs were far more difficult to discover by airport screeners.

Instead of hiding the bombs in the battery compartment like in the past, the terrorist bomb-makers know how to hide the explosives while keeping the laptop functional long enough to get past screeners.

American intelligence agencies believe that al-Qaeda in Yemen has the highest level of bomb-making expertise and that the expertise might be spread among other terror groups.

Trump has been under fire by Muslim and human rights groups as well as his Democratic rivals and many of his Republican proponents since he started calling for a "total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States" during his presidential campaign.

Following his inauguration on January 20, Trump has twice issued executive orders, banning people from several Muslim-majority countries, causing widespread protests in the US and several world cities.

If the USA withdraws from all countries it has invaded terrorism will stop immediately. If the USA wants to fight terrorism as it claims to be then it should stay home.

Thanks Anti-terror. The Americans by virtue or vice of their enormous self pride have forgotten that they live in glass houses. And have cultivated the good or bad habit of throwing rocks. Why all these crying, yelling, hooting

The aim of this report by the US board of intelligence is to justify possible more of US implications in the war in Yemen. The US is looking to have an official Carte Blanche to send its men in uniforms in Yemen. But it may also be true that the terrorist are inovatings their practices in bombs detection.

Pretty much all terrorism in the world originates with Israel and the US, including ISIS. More people are seeing such airport measures as part of the NWO garme.
