I know that all kinds of liquids are currently banned form carry-on luggage and must be packed in the checked luggage, but couldn't terrorists use the liquid explosives but put them in the checked baggage?

No, they cannot.
I am surprised how much information I could find on the web on this.
The chemical to be used is called TATP(Triacetone triperioxide) that can be readily made from mixing hydrogen peroxide and acetone, both easy bought from pharmacy over the counter.
This chemical is very difficult, almost impossible to be detected by the most sophisticated technology. It can be pre-mixed. I suppose it can also be used on check-in scenario, though I am not an expert on this, but Richard Reid used the same thing and pre-mixed it a couple years ago.
What is really shocking is how available the material is on this internet. This really has pique my curiosity, I bet I can even find material on making a crude nuclear bomb on the internet.

Differnt terrorists were going to bring the different ingrdients on the planes, sit near each other on the planes, and then mix the stuff together, causing an explosion. That's all i've heard so far. More will be on the news in 5 minutes

I can't give you an answer to that (I've never even been on a plane!) but I can tell you about that weird guy whose been posting that same identical question in the law enforcement category about the bank robbery in PA to which I noticed you've responsed to his continous question. He contacted me thru an open question I had to tell me to f*ck off and that I'm an a**hole because--now get this--he is conducting a study of how many different answers he can possibly get! Then I went back to answering question in law enforcement and there's the same bank robbery question, but now he's got a new profile, radley1009 and it's the same crap all over again with twice as many postings. So that's the story on that freak. I made an abuse report about him and I noticed that his profane answer in my question was already deleted, so hopefully we won't see that stuff too much longer. See ya.

ok, positioned each and each bottle in separate ziplock bag and then back in a much better one. If liquid handed off to leak, get bottle out, sparkling outdoors of it and open, then close the bag with the leaked liquid and reducing a corner use as a piping bag and positioned liquid back in bottle. it is your ultimate guess.

As far as I've heard, the explosives weren't made yet--they were just in their raw components. In other words, they had to stuff to make it, but it wasn't assembled.
So...think about diet coke and mentos. Neither of them blow up on their own, but once you mix them, the reaction is explosive.
Same concept.

They have to be mixed to explode.
