A JetBlue Airways Corp. flight was diverted Tuesday after the captain was locked out of the cockpit for “erratic behavior,” then ran up and down the aisle and banged on the cockpit door before being subdued by passengers, according to the Federal Aviation Administration and accounts from passengers.

The FAA said in a statement that the co-pilot locked the captain out of the cockpit after becoming concerned with his behavior. A

When Pilots Attack
Why you can not take them seriously
Where’s the anger from the perpetually mad leftists these days? Man, did the left howl about the Patriot Act when that was passed. Evil Boosh-Hitler and his fascist government tactics violating the rights of terrorists! Never mind that fascism is a disease of the left, and Bush while a big government lover, never rose to the level of the left and their desire to have government control all aspects of the rube’s lives, or that … Read more
The DHS Follies
I sometimes wonder if the Homeland Security — and the Transportation Security Agency in particular — shouldn’t just take the plunge and change their acronym to WTF:
Vanessa Gibbs, 17, claims the Transportation Security Administration stopped her at the security gate because of the design of a gun on her handbag.
Gibbs said she had no problem going through security at Jacksonville International Airport, but rather, when she headed home from Virginia.

The Iranian Plot
Busy day, but I’ll put up a quick post on this:
FBI and DEA agents have disrupted a plot to commit a “significant terrorist act in the United States” tied to Iran, federal officials told ABC News today.
The officials said the plot included the assassination of the Saudi Arabian ambassador to the United States, Adel Al-Jubeir, with a bomb and subsequent bomb attacks on the Saudi and Israeli embassies in Washington, D.C. Bombings
India Under Attack Again
A bomb exploded outside New Delhi’s High Court on Wednesday, killing at least 11 people and injuring 66, in an act of suspected terrorism in the heart of India’s capital that further heightened concerns about the nation’s security vulnerabilities.
The high-intensity blast occurred at 10:14 a.m. near the courthouse reception area. Officials said they believed the bomb was placed in a briefcase.
Right now, they can’t confirm who it was. But it’s very … Read more
Security, Inc.
The LA Times has one of the periodic exposes of how bloated the security and anti-terrorism sector of our economy has become. As we’ve noted many times, it seems that policy and spending are driven not by a comprehensive overlook of the terror threat but by people sitting around, having a few drinks and imagining what terrorists might do.
On the edge of the Nebraska sand hills is Lake McConaughy, a 22-mile-long reservoir that in
Oslo Thoughts
I just wanted to move above the fold with this. More information is coming out about the murderous Anders Behring Breivik, including a presumed manifesto raging against Marxists and Muslims. This is, as expected, provoking a few smug reactions from the Left. Apparently, the Right Wing — from the most moderate center-right to the most whacked out loon — are one all one big lump. Right wing terror, no matter what it’s motivation or where … Read more
One Step Forward, One Back
The hypocrite in chief pinned another merit badge on his sash, this one for authorizing Bush style interrogation techniques, the one area that he has so far remained strident in not buckling on his principals, on a captured terrorist:
The U.S. military captured a Somali terrorism suspect in the Gulf of Aden in April and interrogated him for more than two months aboard a U.S. Navy ship before flying him this week to New
UBL finaly sent to hell.
It now looks like a team of US NAVY Seals shot and killed UBL in an operation Sunday evening May 1st, 2011. Coincidentally, May 1st is also the day Hitler was declared dead, so maybe there is some freaky karmic justice thing going on here. The team apparently tried to catch him alive, but he wouldn’t have any of that, so he was shot in the head. Seems someone there – not sure if … Read more
Breaking – Osama Bin Dead
ABC and others are reporting that Osama bin Laden has been killed.
Burn in hell, you fucker.
More to follow. The President is about to speak.
Update: I’m up way past my bedtime, but will dash off a few quick paras and then think more about this while I sleep.
This appears to have been a carefully planned and perfectly executed operation. Eight months in preparation to nab this guy. The boys in JSOC … Read more
