Security personal in airports where waiting lines mount, services decrease and fear rules the airline industry, and our own government. Even though the bombs were never detonated, the terror factor has once again crept in to our daily lives. How long will it be before we take our airports back?"

The services are currently available to accommodate this plan and could save thousands of passengers from an imminent attack on our way of life, here and around the world," concluded Mr. Altomare.
