Security Breach at Newark Airport

Posted on Comments

Not sure if it’s anything other than a major hassle for travelers, but Fox News has this:

Authorities are searching for a man who walked through a screening checkpoint exit into the secure side of a terminal at Newark Liberty International Airport. Flights have been grounded, and passengers are being re-screened.
Homeland Security Department spokeswoman Sari Koshetz says a man was seen walking down an exit lane at Terminal C about 5:30 p.m. Sunday.
Once aware of the situation, TSA officials with assistance from the New York Port Authority reviewed security videotape to identify the errant individual.
As of 8:40 p.m. Sunday, security was unable to locate that individual in the terminal.
The security line was emptied, and passengers were waiting in check-in areas at about 9 p.m. . . .

  2. Clearly the system can be brought to a halt without bombs in the lingerie. We seem to forget that the purpose of terror is not to destroy, but to terrorize and paralyze. The existing system is too fragile to ever be effective.
