Nice Try

I guess this plan didn’t work out too well for you:

Terrorists planned to concoct an “explosive cocktail” using MP3 players and sports drinks to blow up as many as 10 jetliners bound for the United States, authorities said Thursday.

U.S. intelligence officials said the plotters hoped to stage a dry run by Friday, The Associated Press reported. The actual attack would have followed days later, the officials told AP.

CNN.

Congratulations to the men and women of the law enforcement, military, and intelligence agencies that worked this case and shut these asshats down.

    “Nice Try”?

    Come on, isn’t that title a little flippant considering the severity of what could have happened?

    No. Fuck them.

    They tried, they lost. I’m sure they’ll try again.
