Germany Tightens Airport Security Over Credible Threats

Germany is deploying the federal police force to airports and railway stations in response to "concrete indications" of terrorist attacks being planned for the end of November.

Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere said he had information on "sustained efforts" by Islamist extremists to carry out attacks, and the extra security would remain in place until further notice.

If there were "concrete indications" of an attack in the United States, would the media, Pilot's Association and the public embrace TSA's new pat-down procedures? I wonder.
