some uses similes or metaphors to wish ill will on their fellow humans even without the other doing anything wrong to them. it just so happened maybe that they're too good for their liking? and some do plot to kill innocent civilians to inflict harm to those they despised or to those whom they have things in conflict with, maybe on how they live which is drastically different from them or over religious unsimilarities. yesterday, definitely good prevailed over the devil for a northwest-delta flight 253 from Amsterdam with 278 on board avoided a planned terrorist attack here in Detroit on Jesus b-day and landed safely on 12:51 PM. a young Nigerian citizen lighted a small explosive device while the plane is on its final 20 minutes flight preparing its descent to land. thank God that no one was badly hurt after this very scary incident. a failed terrorist attempt to blow up a plane over American soil, that's what our president described it. this man they said mixed solids and liquids in a syringe to come up with this explosive device...
in 2001 the shoe bomber, Mr. Reid tried to ignite an explosive device hidden in his shoes during a trans-Atlantic flight then but failed. maybe a blessing in disguise that this method of operandi was exposed for there were suspicious passenger plane crashes prior to that and the incidents diminished greatly since the shoe discovery and now this. years ago in our airport here a domestic northwest flight also crashed immediately after take off with just one survivor, a little girl below ten whose mom was a nurse and they thought used her own body to shield her from the impact. she, her older boy and her husband along with all the rest of 150 or plus passengers all died. the story of carnage and death was miraculously averted yesterday making the more sweeter of a Christmas to remember for years to come...yes, a very precious Christmas present if you think about the lives that were potentially put in danger if the plot came into fruition. horror of horrors, an apocalyptic nightmare but instead passengers are alive to tell us about the commotion where the fright and the fear of the flight attendants were very obvious, visible and palpable...thank God not only for small favors but for big time favors such as this as well. it's truly a happiness to the max. Christmas retained its smile bringing ways as we think of something like this to think and to thank about... today and all the holidays to come...
