there were 20 men carrying liquid based bombs on to planes headed for the US. the plan was to detonate these bombs midflight, assuming there would be no way to land the damaged planes, causing catastrophic damage. the bombs were concealed in carry on luggage. because they were made from liquid they did not set off metal detectors and under the x-ray images they looked like bottles of mineral water, notihng to suspicious.
wow that was like a 10 point answer!
hope it helped

There was a plot to blow up or down 6 to 10 airplanes full of people while they were in flight. Probably somewhere over the Atlantic ocean. Perhaps as they arrived in the U.S. It is also possible that they were planning to turn them around and fly them into places in Europe and England.
We learned of this threat and arrested most of the people involved.

George Bush and his friend Tony Blair were getting scared because everybody but the dumb people they call "neocons" were getting mad because they lied to them and sent their kids to a far away place where they were getting killed, so the two of them got together and said lets come up with a story to make everyone like us, so they told everyone that some bad people were going to make some airplanes go boom and we stopped them. Everyone was happy because they forgot that they lied to us before when they said that that bad man named Saddam Hussein had bombs and stuff that could kill a lot of people. They call that

There was a big publicity stunt to boost the reputation of Blair and Bush. Some people who might have been planning to do something bad in the future, but who had not done it yet, were caught, and they turned it into a media frenzy and a huge inconvenience for everyone so they could claim they are fighting terrorism and therefore get votes.
