‘A matter of time until another 9/11’ Warn Experts as Airport Security Weaker Than Ever; Security Experts Warn of Another 9/11 Style Attack Ahead of 20th Anniversary & Say Airports are ‘making same mistakes’

‘A matter of time until another 9/11’ warn experts as airport security weaker than ever:

When former TSA undercover agents learned that a passenger with a loaded handgun breezed past scanners at Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson Airport and boarded a flight to Tokyo in 2019, they were not surprised.

They had done the same thing on a regular basis, posing as potential terrorists with fake guns and bombs to test security — and getting waved through disturbingly often, they told The Post.

The Tokyo-bound gunslinger didn’t turn out to be a threat, they said, but agents pointed to leaked data from TSA in 2015 and 2017 showing that attempts by their “Red Team” of covert agents to smuggle in weapons, explosives and banned objects succeeded sometimes up to 95 percent of the time.

And they said this could mean another 9/11 is possible, a warning that came as the Department of Homeland Security issued a bulletin Friday saying the 9/11 20th anniversary could spur extremist violence.

“The TSA didn’t learn from what happened before,” said former FAA Special Agent Brian Sullivan, telling The Post security failures exposed by the agency since then have opened the door to another. —>READ MORE HERE

‘A MATTER OF TIME’ Security experts warn of another 9/11 style attack ahead of 20th anniversary & say airports are ‘making same mistakes’:

ANOTHER 9/11 style attack is just “a matter of time,” security experts have warned saying airports are still “making the same mistakes”.

Transportation Security Administration (TSA) agents say that leaked figures from the organisation in 2015 and 2017 show that attempts by their “Red Team” of cover personnel to smuggle weapons, explosives and banned objects aboard flights succeeded sometimes up to 95 per cent of the time.

They say this means another 9/11 could be on the cards with the Department of Homeland Security issuing a bulletin Friday saying the 9/11 20th anniversary could be a trigger for extremist violence.

“The TSA didn’t learn from what happened before,” former Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Special Agent Brian Sullivan, told the New York Post, adding security failures exposed by the agency since then have opened the door to another.
