Who said they are going to do it in a flight?
These long lines cause more people to stand in a smaller area.
Doesn't that make it a far easier target for those people?

If they ever turn evil...
Yeah, when it happens, google will inform us on the main page.
I Guess these new security measures don't really work after all.
In a vacuum you only lose heat via radiation, and you know that's pretty slow, since Vacuum flasks can keep things hot for a really long time.
So yeah, breathing would be your concern.
That's not really true. Vacuum flasks are also covered with reflective coatings inside so that the heat loss from radiation is also minimized. Also when considering heat loss from radiation, what's important is the difference of temperature between the surroundings and the object. If the surrounding's also warm, it would also give the object heat by radiation. If the surrounding is space, the heat you get by radiation is negligible, so yes, you would freeze very quickly. But whether it would be quicker than explosion of your body due to lack of outside pressure, I don't really know. But my guess is you wouldn't have time to be concerned about anything.
Ground-based sensors would detect that a devastating blow had been struck and a counterattack would be launched.
Nothing can go wrong!
Well, seems like they made earthquakes much more dangerous then they really are. As far as I know, even Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comprehensive_Nuclear-Test-Ban_Treaty] people can't distinguish 100% accurately between earthquakes and nuclear explosion tests.
