[New York Times] Mark Landler - German authorities, investigating an alleged plot to hide an explosive device aboard a passenger jet in Frankfurt last summer, detained six men on Friday on suspicion of belonging to a terrorist group. All but one of the men was released the following day, but German authorities said they are investigating additional people whom they believe sought to bribe an employee at Frankfurt Airport to place a bomb aboard the plane. German news sources, citing police officials, said the men were from the Middle East, possibly Jordan. Die Welt said the target was the Israeli airline El Al. German terrorism expert Rolf Tophoven said: "This is a new tactical development, because they tried to infiltrate the security infrastructure by hiring a person who had access to the airfield and aircraft....You can protect an airfield with electronic fences and X-rays, but you can't protect against human weakness." 2006-11-21 01:00:00Full Article
