At least 18 AQ Airline Bombers Out There
The attempted Al Qaeda bombing of cargo planes raises an important, disturbing question: How many trained Al Qaeda airline bombers are at large (excluding the recently released PLO/Hamas mass murderer and who-knows-how-many Hezbollah and Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps killers)?
Consider that the failed, Christmas Day underwear bomber, Umar Farouk Abdummutallab, told U.S. authorities after his capture that he had trained with some 20 other AQ terrorists in Yemen.
Minus him and the bomber who brought down the Ethiopian airliner off Beirut on January 25, that leaves around 18 more individuals ... plus a bombmaker or two ... all of whom surely have been honing their craft in the intervening months.
