Question has been asked of why there is no debate on aviation security in the media. There has been lots of ink spilt since 9/11/01 on aviation security, but not much informed, knowledgeable or rational debate in the mainstream media. Not sure why but have afew guesses: 1. certain people in powerful places would like the vast mass of people to act like good sheep and just do what they are told, trust their leaders who will take care of everything. 2. the mainstream media is more interested in pushing things that they can make money off of and not in an informed, knowledgable or rational debate. 3. aviation security is nice but there are other bigger fish to fry in counter terrorism. It just happened that airplanes were the unfortunate weapons this time. Next time it could be car bomb, truck bomb, freight containers, a LNG tanker, you name it. If you think aviation security is a joke look at other modes of transportation and communications and get afraid, get very afraid if you have a paranoid streak.
