You are still afraid, right?

LOS ANGELES (CBS) — Federal agencies were working with Southwest Airlines on Thursday to determine who has been vandalizing their aircraft with mysterious markings.

KNX 1070 investigative reporter Charles Feldman has learned that since February, several Southwest jets have been vandalized with mysterious writings that show up on the underbelly of their 737 passenger aircraft.

The writings — which some have interpreted as being either Arabic or Arabic-type symbols — appeared to have been done with a chemical process that reveals the text once an auxiliary power unit is turned on and heats up the outside skin of the aircraft, according to Feldman.

While it remains unclear how many aircraft are involved, the trend has reportedly increased in recent weeks. - source

Oh crap! Arabic, or Arabic type markings? Quick! Set up a checkpoint in the terminal, and start sexually battering old ladies! These terrorists have to be stopped.

But those guys worked *cheap*!

Of course, we all know the what the ultimate answer will be...

The downtown “Video Integration Center,” funded by a mix of private donations and public money, has already given Atlanta police links to more than 100 public and private security cameras.

Talks are underway to link up with more cameras at CNN Center, Georgia State University, the Georgia World Congress Center and MARTA, along with cameras in Buckhead.

Officials say hundreds or thousands more private-sector cameras will eventually feed into the center. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution toured the center last week, as live footage of a traffic stop and archived video of a DragonCon parade played on a 15-foot screen. Officers can watch up to 128 views at once. - source

I can't wait. Once we get all the cctv networks networked, and available to the heroic cops 24/7 -- then, once again, freedom will reign in the land of the free!

I'd like to see some Arabic type markings appear somewhere then!

They should check out the baggage handlers, the people who check the planes for safety... Oh, and they should find out who speaks & reads Arabic or Farsi - the ones who work for them, in all the places these planes stop and refuel, and where all the stolen things from our luggage goes missing. If one of our stolen cameras, computers, or something else turns up being fenced for funds for terrorism, any of us who have put in a claim for stolen items could be "suspects."
