a reminder not to touch the sacred cow wars in Iraq and Afghanistan

Dubai bomb was flown on passenger planes

One of the two bombs posted from Yemen last week was transported on two passenger planes before being seized in Dubai, Qatar Airways has said.

The device was carried on an Airbus A320 from Sanaa to Doha. It was then flown on another aircraft to Dubai.

It contained the powerful explosive PETN, which is difficult to detect.

Yemen has meanwhile granted conditional release to a woman who was arrested on suspicion of mailing the devices, her family and officials said.

What a big surprise, a terrorist scare just in time for the elections. This should remind desperate candidates not to mention the sacred cow wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. They can't afford to be weak on terrorism with this news.
