    Why is "bottled water" banned on airports?

    Why are they adding bottled water to the banned items to take when we arrive our plane? What bad thing could someone do with bottled water? I don't get it, we see already what's inside the bottled water (tranparency)

    Am I missing something?

      Many different illegal drugs could be transported in a water bottle, while it still looks like regular water.

              They are pretty much banning all liquids because of the recent terror threat

                  The caught a sports drink that looked normal but was tampered with. The top part was the sports drink still sealed but the bottom was a flamable liquid that could be set off with a cell phone or something like that. The news said that they even added food coloring to the liquid to match the sports drink and that if caught, they could open the drink and prove it was a sports drink due to the fact the top half was the real sports drink

                          I know that.

                          My point was, why are they banning it now? After 9/11 it was still allowed, and it's supposed that they could make many attacks, if a bottle water is so dangerous.

                          Also, if someone really wants to make an attack, they can easily do it, of course not in this moment, but it's obvious those muslims were tricked this time, by someone else.

                          A woman can hide C4 in her hair for example. and the scotland yard doesn't taste every woman's hair to see if she has something.

                          Thousands and thousands travel every day and it's impossible to take care of everyone.

                          Right now, the world is under alert, but maybe in 3 or 4 months when all get back to normal, almost everyone will be able (if he wants) to make something bad.

                              something seems really, really fishy about this one.

                              it inspired some copycats in my area today.

                                  Were you high when you wrote that? I am just curious... not like I have anything against being high, but that was the single most DUH statement I have read in at least a week.

                                      probably because they don't want to do a chemical test to verify it is really water

                                                  because the new type of bombs involve liquids, so of course they are going to go overboard with security regarding any kind of liquids...

The top part was the sports drink still sealed but the bottom was a flamable liquid that could be set off with a cell phone or something like that. The news said that they even added food coloring to the liquid to match the sports drink and that if caught, they could open the drink and prove it was a sports drink due to the fact the top half was the real sports drink

What bad thing could someone do with bottled water? I don't get it, we see already what's inside the bottled water (tranparency)

If you are flying FROM the UK, you have to check everything. You are only allowed to carry on a wallet with your ID's passport, airline ticket and credit cards.
