  • The extra security wont stop me from travelling. I have a Long haul flight booked in September, if i can't take any books, magazines until im through departures then no bother i will just buy one.

    Yes more expensive but wouldn't you all rather be safe, you can't buy anything if your dead can you:confused:

    As always the minority spoils everything for the majority.

    Have to agree with some previous posts though, if they don't like our Country and the way the Western World live, why the hell are they living here:mad:

    If you read some of the posts here and replace the word Muslim with the word Jew you start to see how the other side see it.

    Read these posts again and you will see just how nasty we can be.

    I have not read the whole thread just have not got the time

    i am a muslim

    i was never told to kill anyone for my religion!

    these people are just using religion they can't be muslims!

    i always say that if people don't like this country they should go back to the one they like!

    if islam told me to kill innocents i would CHANGE my religion!


    i don't agree with what israeal is allowed to do though!!!
    Honesty is the best policy doesn't matter which web site

    if i had known then what i know now!

    HI Pingu,

    I'm sure that the majority of Muslims are gentle, law abiding people who abhor all this as much as everyone else.

    It must be so difficult to be a Muslim at this time, and it is good to see that you deplore these actions of a few fanatics.
    You're only young once, but you can be immature forever :D

  • Anyone know if we are able to take wrist watches?

    We are due to be flying on holiday to Portugal on Tuesday and hope things have settled a bit by then.

    So does anyone know about watches? Im going to New York next week and still am confused as to what you can take. People say that if you buy things (apart from liquids) you can take them onboard like books but i'm not sure if I will be able to as going to the States? From New York, we have another flight to Mexico a few days later. Anyone know what the staus of hand luggage is on flights from the US? I keep finding different answers everywhere.

    I hate how these extremists believe that they can go and blow people up becuase they don't agree with the Western way of life but are happy enough to live in the UK! I was really looking forward to this trip but don't even want to go now. My aunty and family were flying to LA last Thursday and it just makes me feel so sick and angry when I think of what could have happened.

    The point they are making is that we must not generalize and blame all Muslims for this. The terrorist are only a tiny minority and we must not pass on this hate to everyone of that faith. As I pointed out above I can remember back to the 70's when, after some horrible IRA bombs anyone with an Irish name were getting hate phone calls. Do we want a repeat of that ? It's as bad as what happened back in WW1 when any shopkeeper with a German sounding name had their windows smashed in, and even dachshunds were stoned for being "German"
    What part of "A whop bop-a-lu a whop bam boo" don't you understand?

    im afraid that i cannot see in the long term security checks stopping such events happening, the situation will have to return to "normal" because there will be to much money lost to buisnessmen with extra time wasted at airports and loss of laptops etc for hours on end

    and of course BAA will want to make sure none of their money making empire is lost on all those after security checks shops sales even though its a goldmine for terrorists to make bombs or get weapons from those shops

    in the real world after the hype, money comes first and security second..that aint going to change yet

    something big like what was going to happen will have to happen for security to be the number one priority

    its going to be back to normal soon at airports with everyone waiting for another 911 type event to happen

    Sorry i'm going to have to disagree, they will put our security first over money because if our country doesnt have these securities in place, no one will visit our country and then the businesses wont have any business.
    If terroisim continues to iincrease within the UK it will seriously effect our economy.
