Ron - My PMH/PMX/PSH or procedures I have had in the past are nunya. Considering I am a health care provider and my degree is heavy on the sciences (Chemistry, Physics, and Anatomy and Physiology), I know what the volumes stored can be, which i posted above but as per your normal MO completely ignored because they dont fit your "facts".
Im so tempted to put a go litely joke up but I might offend you and you go running to the mods to whine and tattle. Even though its true for all of TSA.
Considering you claim to be a ex MP you are pretty dense as you obviously never heard or seen keestering or regurg by criminals. There is a very large volume you can store internally. If you dont believe me why dont you go ask some prison guards about items found in criminals body cavities, that would curl your toes(especially the x-rays) and i wouldnt be surprised if a code brown happened.

You sure about that? According to what i have heard from family members who are still serving overseas in areas they cant say where, have said that the reports they saw from the event that part of the bombers femur was found 100' a ways firmly embedded into a marble pillar. With that distance and the material it imbedded in thats enough to go through the skin of a aircraft and cause a explosive decompression and structural failure of the frame causing a complete loss.

To date there has not been a successful use of a surgically implanted explosive device. Given the hurdles that such a theory must overcome I don’t see it happening any time soon. Sure, many news articles out there postulate the idea, but it is not a practical way to introduce an explosive device. There were also news articles about sea monsters once upon a time, giant snake/dragon things eating ships whole. And some people believed those news articles as well.
are you sure about that or your facts, or can i just chalk this up to the same as your comments in the past about Money, being able to ID drugs by site, etc?
Then there is this

Who said anything about removing it to be used or activated? The detonator doesnt even have to be outside of the body (tripped by magnetic switch, or button) to activate it. It is very viable if you would open your eyes, look, and lay off the koolaid. One of my friends is trauma surgeon and from Pakistan and has seen it done, in the bombing of a government building. The suicide bomber looked like a she was about 6 months pregnant and no one thought anything of it and then bomb went off and destroyed the building killing half of the people in the building and the remaining injuries varied depending on distance from the blast. A woman 6months along the size of that bump could be 5-15 lbs of explosives.
The typical surgical incision heals in 10-21 days and after that it wouldnt raise anyone suspicions based on looks, then again I dont think you could tell the age of a scar by sight based on your past claims.
