The present policy of benign false flag terrorism began with the Air Force One fly-over of lower Manhattan on April 27, 2009. It then continued over the course of the first two years of the Obama administration with numerous botched and intercepted terrorist attacks. The policy is to achieve political and economic goals by exploiting fear without culling casualties.

A case in point: the Christmas day underwear bomber, contributing to the economic goals of the scanner industry.

Lately there has been a good deal of public backlash on this front, with many travellers vowing to go "pre-Wright Bros." It almost seems as if the purposes were to quash travel and kill the commercial airline industry. But some have speculated that the ultimate purpose of the outrages in airports is to generate public support for a biometric ID program, replacing one physically invasive security procedure with an unnoticeable, but more penetrating interrogation.

But the most recent botched attacks indicate that a greater purpose is to dominate commerce itself.

First it was the Yemen-sent package bombs, intercepted and identified of their blatant addressees: Chicago synagogues. Now this: Germany on high alert; Namibian fake bomb suspect arrested

The opportunity arising from this scare is seized by the interests of a TSA program directed towards the shipping industry.
