The other night a security expert on a television talk show said that you can have 50 air marshalls on a plane and the most secure cockpit door imaginable but it wouldn't do any good as long as a terrorist, who doesn't care if he dies, puts a bomb in his checked luggage.

The precautions that El Al takes regarding every bag that is checked would work but apparently we are only doing this at the newly reopened Washington Airport.

Does anyone have any additional info regarding this?
