"It's a fool's errand to try to make the aviation system terrorist-proof. The only way to do that is ground the airplanes"
Kip Hawley, former Director of the TSA, quoted in the New York Times, 29/12/2009.
That is a very sad but true statement. If the terrorists are determined enough, they will succeed. No amount of measures by the likes of the TSA will ever manage to stop every threat.
As the statement given by the IRA after the Brighton bombing stated: "....but remember we only have to be lucky once. You will have to be lucky always."
