Why then are the vehicles in the decks getting checked more thoroughly than those at the terminal? Here's why..... any bomb that can be delivered to the terminal doors could also be delivered more effectively in other places (sporting events, downtown, etc.) More thorough checks at the decks are meant to prevent larger explosions (think OK City), possibly involving multiple vehicles, than what you see suicide bombers doing. This is based on the methods and tactics used at Khobar Towers and at the US African Embassy bombings.

Why is this so hard to see?
