Dutch arrest 2 on flight from US that looks like a dry run for terror

Telegraph:

Ahmed Mohamed Nasser al-Soofi, who was to believed to be from Yemen, and Hezam al-Murisi, whose nationality was not known, were detained at the request of the American authorities.

Al-Soofi began his journey in Alabama where airport screeners stopped him because of his “bulky clothing”, according to ABC News. They discovered he was carrying $7,000 in cash.

The US Transport and Security Administration is likely to face questions about why he was allowed to board even though his luggage was allegedly found to contain a mobile phone taped to a Pepto-Bismol bottle, three other mobile phones taped together and several watches taped together.

...
The bulky clothing and the mock bombs look like a dry run to see what could get by US security. As a dry run it appears to be an abject failure.

The NY Times has more on the suspicious conduct.
