Two balloons full of gel explosives in a D-cup bra! It's simple enough to pull off. Will every person who appears to be a woman have to be felt up at the airport?

There are so many ways to smuggle liquids onto a plane. They could put liquids in flat, flexible plastic pouches which are sewn into a man's suit jacket as shoulder pads. They could put liquids in a ziplock bag and conceal them in the sewn lining of a handbag or carry-on. A fluffy down jacket can be full of baggies containing explosives.

Forcing people to throw out bottles of Visine and contact lens cleaner is ridiculous! It's a totally false panacea supposedly to calm the masses, with the real intention of fostering panic and fear.

I think it would actually be better NOT to tip off the terrorists that security is looking for liquids. They're only encouraging them to find more ingenious ways of getting liquid explosives onboard. Which will make it harder for airport security to detect them.
