Security officials say explosive packages found on US-bound aircraft in UK and Dubai were meant to bring them down

"..It has emerged the devices were discovered only after a tip-off from Saudi intelligence. "This… started with good information from the Saudis," the US homeland security secretary, Janet Napolitano, said. "We were then immediately able to work with other countries, particularly the UK and the UAE, to segregate these packages, to begin the analysis about what they were..."

Hmm, I never thought I'd say this, but thank you, Saudi Intelligence.

Update. Monday 11.1.10 The Saudis know this idiot.
