Liquid Explosives

Yet again, Bruce Schneier's security blog shines light on the darkness. He explains what is involved in making liquid explosives like what the terrorists were planning on using.

Interesting stuff, and very difficult to smuggle. I'm not a chemistry expert, but this is nasty shite.

the problem

The issue is that with a pressurized aircraft it really doesnt take a whole lot to cause something catastrophic. Aluminum skin and 20,000 lbs of fuel do not mix well with bombs. they might need chemical sniffers or cavity searches. I think I will drive thanks.
