Faking it for the troops is certainly a good way of keeping everyone "on message".
If DHS really wants everyone to believe this risk is valid, I challenge them to do a public demonstration for the newsmedia, where they take two or more liquids/gels, without identifying what they are (duh), mix and prep them outside controlled conditions (like in a sample lav), without showing the actual mixing process (duh), then immediately use that very sample to cause an explosion without the aid of any detonators or other devices which would be prohibited items - right in front of the media.
Want us to believe it? Then prove it!
