Based upon the picture in the article linked above, this is IED 101. If I were searching a bag and found this, I would most likely need a new set of clothes. You have all the components of a smaller yield explosive device - maybe not enough to bring down the airport or a large airplane, but certainly enough to do serious damage to the person holding the device.
