2 Good 2 B True: Sinister Syrians Over America

I would be sceptical too, if 9-11 hadn't happened. But it has. Plus as Michelle Malkin states on her blog site, a big chunk of it was confirmed by a spokesman for the Federal Air Marshall Service. So, I am not so sure.

So what to do? It might not be true, but then again, it might. How do you err on the side of caution here?

I'm skeptical for another reason: there were 14 of them.

If you had 14 men who were willing to blow themselves up, would you put them all on the same plane, or would you put them on several different planes? If all you're doing is assembling a bomb and hiding it in the bathroom, you wouldn't be expecting a struggle, and you'd probably figure one or two guys could handle it. You'd also have to know that 14 Arab-looking men would arouse a lot of suspicion. And even if it was a just a dry run, why risk getting 14 people caught?

So the 12 Muslim Swedes could skate through?

There are only 3 Muslim Swedes. (I know, I've met them all.)
