26. The thing that I find strange about this incident -
is that his security detachment didn't stop this from happening. I mean, he's got to have had American and British security services personnel guarding him, hasn't he? He may not be a Cabinet Minister, but surely he would be a target for terrorist action, and therefore qualify for armed protection? I can't imagine a situation where a member of the US Administration, even a comparatively lowly one, wouldn't have armed protection in an airport in Britain.
