Just my opinion from what I've seen and what hasn't made it to the press.
That story was broken because the US pretty much pushed the Brits into making the arrests. The Brits weren't ready and wanted more time. And of course, the USG made a big deal out of it and trumpeted it as a success. Then the other carnivals began.
I don't doubt that there are things that don't make it out. Been there and done that, and still am to a certain degree. However, TSA never fails to toot its horn whenever it thinks it made a Big Catch® and never fails to have a reactive policy to counteract the threat.
