Yes, seriously. I have no clue what the problem is: it might be anything from quite specific human intelligence of an act of terrorism, to discovering that the security checks for baggage handlers were not ISO 9000 compliant. Doubtless, if there are bad guys with a plan they will suspect something, but if it's kept vague, they won't know what to suspect.

Knowing the full details behind a delay is not going to get passengers to their destination any quicker.
