Well, I have to say, I'm not shocked to see this has been proved wrong. However the media is just as much to blame as the government. If I walked into Hopkins with a lighter FOX news would tell the world I was a white AQ sympathist and CNN would follow with "White AQ sympathizer plots to destroy Hopkins with a lighter and a tube of butter"
This nation needs to settle down.

The original article was from the BBC. I really don't think they're trying to influence the November elections in the Republicans favor.
can't wake up
I doubt they had a reporter on the scene. They reported the info they got. Where did they get the information? Probably from police and/or the DHS/FAA/FBI/etc.
Even if there was no outright agenda its still more evidence at just how deeply ingrained the fear of "the terrorists really is in this country. And that's a shame because you don't act rationally when scared.

Can you dig it?
On Howard Stern the other day, Artie Lange revealed that airport security confiscated his half-used travel size toothpaste tube. You know, because it could be a BOMB.
Yup.The terrorists have alredy won. They have made everyone paranoid and have changed our way of living for the worse.

Next up, terrorists are going to make bomb clothes. The clothes themselves are undetectable bombs. Therefore, afterwards, no clothes of any sort will be allowed onto planes.
*insert witty remark here*
What the hell?
And yes, you're right. They've already won.
elephant.
So I think the "terrorists have already won" lines are kind of silly and probably should have dissapeared after whatever commercials they first appeared in stopped airing.
...in the instance that it was used in commercials. I really don't remember.

Delta jet makes emergency landing because a passenger was in the bathroom too long.

A Boeing 737 Jet, forced to make an emergency landing at the San Antonio International Airport has been given the all-clear, and removed from the runway.
News 4 WOAI has learned a fight attendant was concerned after a passenger spent an extreme amount of time in the plane’s restroom. After the passenger exited the restroom, the fight attendant noticed the ceiling tiles were displaced. The flight attendant notified authorities and the plane was diverted to a far north corner of the airport. Two teams of bomb-sniffing dogs were brought to search the plane. Airport spokesman David Hebert says both K9 units showed interest in the plane. Passengers, and all luggage, aboard the mid-sized Boeing jet, were removed from the plane. All passengers, but for one man, were free to go. Federal authorities held the man they believed tampered with the restroom, back for questioning.
Less than three hours after diverting the plane, and numerous searches, airport officials gave the all clear.
“We can tell you that there was no device found,” says Hebert. “It doesn’t appear to be any danger at this point.” Although the situation is over, and the plane has been turned back over to Delta, News 4 WOAI has learned the one passenger is still being questioned. Officials have yet to release his name, but do say he is not from San Antonio.
