Moscow Bombing

[ThatGuy]

Jan. 24 (Bloomberg) -- A suicide bomber killed at least 31 people in the international baggage claim area of Moscow’s Domodedovo Airport, Russia’s largest.

About 130 more people were wounded in the attack, which occurred at about 4:32 p.m. local time, said Health Ministry spokeswoman Sofya Malyavina. The blast was equivalent to 7 kilograms of TNT (15 pounds), Interfax reported, citing an unidentified law enforcement official.

This oughta make flying even more fun.

Amazing we haven't been hit here lately. I keep waiting for it to happen.

Russia's a fracking joke, I remember those asshole 'rebels' who blew up the school a while back. Just had to bribe some border cops and local cops to get access. I think it cost them $100 or something like that. Don't imagine it would be much different for airport security.

As unprofessional and un-thorough (can I do that?) as the TSA people often are, you have to remember that it's a government agency... that means that there's about 4 supervisors for every peon employee. The government is my client and I see it every day. I find it extremely unlikely that you could bribe your way through airport security, because of the sheer amount of managers, not to mention security cameras about

yeah but at bag claim there's zero security, maybe just a couple of cops hanging around, which this is where this occurred. it seriously could happen at any airport. Russia is just unlucky to have too many angry ethnic rebels within its country

^this. although stuff in baggage is checked to some degree, its not nearly as much and people with a decent understanding of the technology behind it wouldn't find it too difficult to trick or bypass the security systems...
