I do understand the Red Team logic. Hell, I used to run them all the time against high-profile targets. The cynic in me sees the TSA version as just political tools that don't offer much help to the trainer-on-the-ground or the local FSD, for that matter. However, I also understand that Red Teams will never go away. They're political now. Any Congresscritter who signs off on doing away with them would be portrayed as being soft on security.

I'm just responding to the article that TSA is apparently pondering the statistical significance of its testing program. Well, all I have to say is that TSA headquarters painted itself into this mess.
