Now we have news of the recent, supposedly real-world, terrorist plot to destroy
commercial airplanes by smuggling onboard the benign precursors to a deadly
explosive, and mixing up a batch of liquid death in the lavatories. So, The
Register has got to ask, were these guys for real, or have they, and the
counterterrorist officials supposedly protecting us, been watching too many
action movies?

We're told that the suspects were planning to use TATP, or triacetone
triperoxide, a high explosive that supposedly can be made from common household
chemicals unlikely to be caught by airport screeners. A little hair dye, drain
cleaner, and paint thinner - all easily concealed in drinks bottles - and the
forces of evil have effectively smuggled a deadly bomb onboard your plane.

Or at least that's what we're hearing, and loudly, through the mainstream media
and its legions of so-called "terrorism experts."...............................
