Al-Qaeda’s chief bomb-maker Ibrahim al-Asiri is thought to have developed explosives that can be concealed in breast implants and escape detection from airport scanners.
Too much trouble for airline passengers! Because there was a twin tower attack, we still have to wait in a long queue and get vigorously checked at the airport security checkpoints. Because there was a shoe bomber, we still have to take off our shoes. Now, because there is a new breast bomb threat, we, most likely, are going to be harassed again. Are the airport security personals planning to give us hard breast massage or what?
I do not think al-Qaida is capable of doing any thing big any more. Dead lions roaring! There is no need to take their threats too seriously. I hope the breast bomb threat is like fake anthrax threat or fake underwear bomb threat.
What next?
Ass bombs? No, I am not interested. I am waiting for brain bombs. If those bombs can make terrorist brains change.
I’m sceptical – the media raised the “breast bomb” spectre previously in 2010 and 2012, but there’s never any evidence. Full discussion here.
There already are drug mules, “swallowers” who carry dope in their stomachs wrapped in condoms and plastic. Would be farfetched to think some nuts do the same with C4 and a detonator, now that body scanners are being removed from airports?
That’s not an attempt to give looneytunes ideas, but if I can think of it, you can bet someone else has or would.
I’ve been saying since 9-11, someday someone is going to hijack an airliner with kung fu and we’re all just going to have to fly drugged in straightjackets.
That would make it easier to fly my children…
Unfortunately, it’s no stupider than the current speculation about clothing made into bombs.

I suggest that to counter this threat all women on aeroplanes are dressed in large black kevlar bags to contain any explosion which may occur.
This made me chuckle! “ass bombs” “brain bombs”! I don’t think there is much threat either! they’ve done the planes. It’s so old hat now and too much trouble. Trains and boats and buses are more likely.
Going back to the boobs, they could easily implant them in moobs! Moobs are the new boobs and trains are the new planes!!
To wreck a train, you don’t need a bomb. It’s been done at least twice that I know of with hand tools. I was mildly surprised that no Congresscritter proposed a Crowbar and Big Wrench Control Act. What really surprises me is that nobody points out that it’s not what a terrorist does that does the real damage, it’s what he can provoke the target government to do. No Islamofacist could have designed a force multiplier as powerful as the Department of Homeland Security.
i know there has been work on developing penis bombs. Unfortunately they usually go off too soon.
All these assholes have to do is talk about a new method, no matter how ridiculous. In defense i suggest we develop a virus that puts anyone who says “Allah Akbar” into a 24 hour coma.

left0ver1under> actually, this was briefly mentioned in Mary Roach’s latest book: ‘Gulp: Adventures on the Alimentary Canal’. I can’t remember the complete reasoning, but I think it was a combination of too small a quantity, no ability to place the charge immediately against whatever, and dampening by the body.
And yeah, I won’t say this is impossible, but considering the surgery, recovery, triggering, etc., I think this is highly unlikely. And at this rate, all Al-Qaeda has to do is leak a bit about some great new development, and the U.S. will be tripping over itself to further whittle away at the 4th amendment.
Then again, maybe this is being spread by a bunch of dudebro TSA agents so they have even less chance of repercussions for groping large-breasted women.
I wasn’t thinking about detonation within the body. The nightmare I pictured was someone going into the bathroom on an airplane and vomiting out the parts, then connecting and activating the detonator. Fishing out the parts instead of vomiting is also a possibility (re: dental floss tied to a tooth).
please tell me mam, is that possible or not? if there is any chance to make it possible, then there should be any way out to find them.
As Feminem have shown, there’s no need to put explosives in breasts for them to be dangerous…
Breast bomb hoax ! Beware , women, having big breast and displaying shamelessly !
A tiny 8 pound hand weight would make a pretty awesome weapon, as would my gigantic work laptop… I think you could knock somebody’s skull in with either one. Can’t prevent everything until you ban passengers imho.
Wasn’t there already some guy who put a bomb in his rectum, but his body shielded most of the blast?

One of the main reasons could my english writings and spellings done in styles with spellings I learned and got used to follow per Oxford-Cambridge suggested standards.
Yep at least one. In Saudi in 2009 an Al Qaeda operative tried to blow up a Saudi interior minister. But as you said, his body absorbed most of the blast. The minister had a minor hand injury and, apart from the bomber, nobody was seriously hurt. Supposedly there was a similar attempt in Afghanistan in the same year.
Girls and women should be mauled and squeezed thoroughly to detect such bombs. Their pussies and rectum should also be official probed during security frisks.
I would rather risk a bit of terrorism than have my privacy invaded, my freedoms restricted or my opinions scrutinized!
LOL. Bum bomb ?? Please check, what Achmed says about their facility.
