Explosives, they can build a homemade belt, get to a soft facility like a cafe thats pretty easy to do. i think the question, john, is the magnitude of this. if youre talking about a dozen, 15 people involved in an operation, thats 15 people who dont talk to the wrong person, dont get on the wrong e-mail and dont get on the wrong phone. surprising in this operation to me is not that it happened. its the operational security in the cell that led them not to be detected. >> so how many people were...
