The dutch police arrested two yemen men coming from Chicago this morning at Schiphol!
They had bottles with attached mobiles in their luggage! The police
thinks it was a kind of test run!

That surely causes hard security checks the next weeks. :!:

Don't they check at O'Hare anymore? :?:

actually i think they were searched and identified on the US side and allowed to travel as they had nothing actually dangerous on them. Schipol authorities were informed and federal air marshalls travelled on the flight. (not sure if the marshalls were already on the flight or travelled because of the threat?)

They've been releaeased as ther is "...no evidence of wrongdoing,there is no reason to keep the men in custody".
I love the last..."NOS TV say that the men may fly out to Dubai tonight".
I bet they fuckin' will :D ...
