I read on a website (i'm sorry, I don't know which one it was. I came across it last week but didn't make a note of it - i'll try and find it again) that he alledgedly said something when the security people questioned some tweezers he had.
This is not a direct quote but the website reported it as it was something like, "Checking my tweezers won't do anything. If I want to crash the plane I can do".
If this report was correct then once again, it's a case of common sense going out the window......Bin Laden is still roaming free but a US pilot is up in front of a court for what seems a jovial remark. Where is the perspective?
