U.S.-Paris Flight Lands After False Alarm


"One U.S. official said a young woman was denied boarding in Paris because she was wearing a jacket with wires and a battery connected to it apparently for heating the coat.

'It looks like a young lady with an unusual jacket,' the official said, adding that she was not believed to be a terror risk. It was unclear if her luggage had been removed from the flight.

A French Interior Ministry spokesman said the woman was stopped at Charles de Gaulle airport after a security search found the jacket but bomb disposal experts confirmed the wires were for a warming device and the woman was not a terror suspect.
"

Can you really believe that you're winning the WOT when you have the entire country in a panic everytime something "unusual" happens at an airport? Sounds to me like the terrorist have won.
