#1 And they're certainly not going to profile any young male of Middle Eastern heritage who happens to be a Koran thumping muslim.

Meanwhile, make sure you strip search that 80 year old grandma in the boarding queue.

#2 If the dry-run was to have taken place last week (preceeding)the explosions, where were the dry-runner gonna sojourn in the US? Perhaps they do have connections in the US. Making the dry-run, then promptly return to the UK would have been risky for them. Of course, laying low in a hotel is also possible.

My parents were in the States one year ago; they are white and are 65 years old; they took 3 flights inside the US, and both were searched each time...

Some people in the queue laughed at the absurdity of this search and empathized with my parents.
