Well, the matter here is not about security inside de terminal, pax screening, liquids in the bags...etc

Its about making the whole airport secure against easy penetration. They failed big time when you think it happened so many times in the past. I dont get it.....motion sensors, cameras.....there was obviously a big whole in the system that the guys took advantage of.

Brussels is a high profile airport, because they have the EU and NATO institutins and because so many valuables are being trassported via this hub on regular basis. You would think that this kind of robberies are out of question...guns and cars on the ramp?! Lets get real, it is as serious as it can get.

Although the operation was fast, authorities had time to respond, to raise the alarm. Nothing happened.....It is outrageous.
