Making TATP the explosive that was meant to blow up the airplaines is the latest terrorist plot scare is no easy taks. It is certainly not as easy as you just mix it and you have bomb material like in a hollywood movie.

Peroxide of the concertation needed is nearly impossible to come by and needs to be handled with extreme care, a drinks bottle is not suitable. To mix the ingredidents will take a long time as they can only be added drop my drop, while stirring contiously and checking the temperature of the mix. It would also smell a lot. After it is all mixed (hours later) the TATP needs to dry for an hour or two before it can be used.
None of the alleged terrorists had made a bomb. They had not bought any plane tickets and many did not even have passports

It all seems to have been blown completey out of preportion and feels like another attemt to keep us all living in fear so that we will not question all the money and resourses being funneled into the 'war on terror'

Do some muslims don't have conscience? Why do some of them tell so many lies as they are telling that lies is "haram"? why are some of them don't obey what is written in their revised quran?
Some muslims are very good and have faith in God but some of them are terribly bad!

Obviously, the guy didn't kill her.
Lets move on.
Thank You.
(Yes, I do see the irony in this question, in case you were wondering).

Or would the world shrug their collective shoulders and say "glad that's over"? If the arabs win territorially, will they actually win?

I just caught the end of it on the news. Doesn't sound good. Yet it isn't really surprising if it is what I think they said it is.

The skirts that I am referring to are the pleated skirts that a lot of school girls and most women wear that blow up in the wind, make it hard for you to sit down and bend over because you would show off your panties/thong. Do you have this problem? If so please explain in detail and include how you solve the problem and the color panties/thong you were wearing at the time.

Recently it has been released that they may have found JonBenet Ramsey's (I don't know if I spelled that right) killer. I also saw on the news a lady describing the guy (whom I think only happened because she saw him on the news) and is claiming she can figure out how he killed the little girl. What do you think about this? Do you think it's true or false?

From what I can tell by looking at all these questions and answers, teenage girls (starting as early as 13) are getting pregnant. Whatever happened to waiting till adulthood. For pete's sake, if I had had a kid when I was 13, my parent's would have killed me. Why would teenagers want to start having kids that young. It's like...seventh grade. To make matters worse, there seem to be a large number of pregnant teenagers. Are you concerned?
