I agree that the CBBT could be "taken out" with a relatively small 
effort. That is why I have trouble understanding why the restaurant on 
the first island remains open to people who undergo no security 
screening whatsoever. Am I wrong in thinking that any vehicle is a 
potential car bomb and, if one exploded in one of the tunnels, the CBBT 
would be effectively taken out? I just don't see much in the way of 
reasonableness or fairness here.
