What? Are you trying to give new meaning to Tom's Hard Ware? Come on this article is bogus. The Sun paper is tabloid. THG is for a technical hardware matters although silicon is often mentioned but refering to wafers not breasts. Don't refer to The Sun. It's like refering to The National Enquirer.

how the bloody hell would you detonate such a device ???? sure the chemical explosive would be near impossible to detect, im no expert but im sure the wires you have to embed with the damn thing would probably set of half a dozen alarms, and that if the lady is going for the hit and miss affair of groping herself to find the arm button, otherwise she's going have a whole bunch of wires poking out her breast.... somehow i dont think anyone is going believe thats due to middle eastern women being hairy...

A catalyst such as the acid the underpants bomber tried to inject into his shorts with a hypo, could be encapsulated in something that could shatter/open on impact mixing with the HE. Think chem lights here.

I guess if some woman was smacking her chest and jumping up and down, it might be a good idea to leave the room. :)

The short comedy show "NewsBusted" had Jody Miller telling a similar story, where Pamela Anderson was now classified as a weapon of mass destruction. :D

Yes, unless you are killing in the name of your god, then you are all set, or something.

You're ignorance is palpable.

even if your going for a binary chemical compound, if you want that all encapsulated into a single breast implant then your talking about a highly sophisticated device, one that would not set of accidentally and allow for proper mixing of the compounds otherwise your going to just erm... set your breast on fire like the wannabe xmas day bomber, again im just guessing but the kind of fabrication techniques needed for such a device is well beyond the means of standard terrorist

if the second compound is going be inject via a syringe... thats even more a hit and miss affair even if you can get the needle to the correct location (presuming the device had not shifted, more fondling required...) chances are your not going to be able to dump the correct level chemical in a fast enough time for it to go critical

it would seem someone liked the idea of women fondling themselves...

Actually you're not supposed to kill unless you're doing it in the defense of Islam (aka people are attacking you and forcing you to convert). Proper Islam actually teaches that Christians and Jews are people of the same God and that they're not to be killed (except of course if they try to attack you). So pretty much all of the Islam that terrorists follow is bogus.

Hope that clears things up.

And yes... still curious how you would detonate such a... device.

If they are switching to those tactics, the Gov. should enclose every one that is getting screened in a radio frequency and bomb proof container and barrage them with radio frequencies to detonate any explosives that are implanted (assuming they are radio controlled, if they have a wire to their chest you will be able to see it on the 3d image and metal detectors), that way they get rid of the threat and not risk everyone else and if nothing happens the person getting screen proceeds and pass thought the checkpoint.

Detection is useless, mass retaliation is the way of the future. Like the good old days when the UN didnt exist. It would be awesome to watch Somalia or Iran being firebombed back to the stone age, japan-style, on CNN 24/7 for weeks.

Btw its hard to put 20 pounds of Semtex or C4 in your breast...

Comments keep comming up about how it is against their religion. It may be true, but I think they make exceptions for martrdom. If memory serves me correctly, the guys that hijacked the planes for 9/11 went to a strip club the night before (something that is definately forbidden in the strict muslim religion)

Its sad because as time goes on, the threats keep getting worse and worse and harder to detect. Unfortunately our actions in the last 9 years have probably only made things worse. Many raticals are kept at bay when they are in control of a harsh system/dictator (ie Sadam). It seems great when the US comes in an offers freedom but I wonder if it just gives them the freedom to be more radical (in Afganistan as well as Iraq).
