A confidential security checklist used by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), the organization in charge of airport screening in the US, was published by The Intercept. Other warning signs, according to the document, include protruding or throbbing neck arteries, whistling, excessive laughter, and "verbally expressing contempt for the screening process". Its Screening of Passengers by Observation Techniques (SPOT) guidance, used by staff to root out potential terrorists, lists a total of 17 “stress factors”, each of which are worth one point, 15 “fear factors”, worth two points, and six “deception factors”, worth three. If a traveler scores four or more points, they should be referred for selective screening, according to the instructions. The 17 stress factors are: Sweaty palms Arrives later for flight Trembling Avoids eye contact with security personnel Whistling as the individual approaches the Exaggerated yawning as the individual screening process approached the screening process Excessive fidgeting, clock watching, head- The 15 fear factors are: turning, shuffling feet, leg shaking Bag appears to be heavier than expected or Excessive perspiration inconsistent with the does not suit the individual’s appearance environment Bulges in clothing Face pale from recent shaving of beard Cold penetrating stare Facial flushing while undergoing screening Constantly looking at other travelers or Faster eye blink rate when individual associates requested to submit to screening Exaggerated emotions or inappropriate procedures behavior such as crying, excessive laughter Increased breathing rate, panting or chatter Obvious “Adam’s Apple” jump when Exaggerated, repetitive grooming gestures requested to submit to screening Hesitation/indecision on entering procedures checkpoint Protruding or beating neck arteries Individuals who are seemingly Repetitive touching of face unrelated but display identical Rubbing or wringing of hands dress or luggage Strong body odor www.cbrne-terrorism-newsletter.com Page | 3 CBRNE-TERRORISM NEWSLETTER – February 2016 Powerful grip of a bag or hand inside the both spouses over 55 years old”, a female over bag 55 years old, or a male over 65 years old.

  • Pbci Reflects on the Zamboanga City Crisis
    SEPTEMBER 2013 EDITION PBCI REFLECTS ON THE ZAMBOANGA CITY CRISIS 9 September 2013. Zamboanga City, a major port and a highly urbanized city in the Philippines saw the start of a 20- day war with the Moro National Libera- tion Front (MNLF). More than 130,000 people were displaced. 24 government forces and 183 MNLF fighters perished during the war. Military data said that two civilians were killed in the gunfire. Based on the current socio-political situation of the Philippines, the Zamboanga crisis might be an attempt to cover up the pork barrel scam worth billions of dollars. Several of our country’s top leaders were implicated in releasing their Priority Development Assistance Fund to fake organizations. The organizations were headed by Janet Napoles who was frequently seen in photos with the accused A queue for lunch at the largest evacuation site for the war-displaced people in Zamboanga City leaders. Several questions have to be considered in relation to this: 1. Why would this armed conflict in Zamboanga happen right at the time when the House Committee on Appropria- tions will make official the scrapping of $643 million Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF), which is just one of the more than $12B pork barrel funds? Just coincidence? 2. Is it really mere coincidence that the witnesses against Janet Lim Napoles who were about to fly to Manila to report to the office of the National Bureau of Investigations got stranded in Zamboanga airport on that fateful Monday morning? Napoles is the alleged mastermind of a major pork barrel fund scam.
