Air Distress: Euros want answers

Europeans, including the Brits, want an investigation into that American intelligence that grounded more flights coming into the US from England and other points over the last several days.

I don't think anyone's going to argue that it's better to cancel a flight than to risk lives lost. But the frequency with which the US has cried, "Wolf at the door" and the closest evidence we ever see is Paul Wolfowitz, I think no sane, intelligent person can fail to be skeptical. Yet we better get used to it because I have this nasty feeling we're going to be living in planned, super-scary chaos before election day.
