acroyearon the Moscow bomb, did it go off in front of or behind the primary security line (e.g., the x-rays/metal detectors/etc)? i watched the coverage during lunch and nobody actually even mentioned it, but it makes a HUGE difference on the assumptions of security...
ok, AP updated on that, a little - it went off in "international arrivals", but descriptions keep being vague about whether it not that was the waiting area outside the customs-and-immigration area, or within it. (from a Dulles airport example, is this at baggage claim #14, which anybody can walk up to, or the other side of those double doors where people are awaiting customs and therefore have already been on a plane from somewhere else outside of the country...)
It makes a difference on whether or not the perp got the bomb through an airport security system (and if so, which one) or just walked up from the outside (like the LAX shooter a few years back).
