House Transportation Chairman John Mica Calls Moscow Bombing a Warning

Florida Republican U.S. Rep. John Mica weighed in on the recent airport bombing in Moscow and, as the newly installed chairman of the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, said that it could have an impact in America.

Once again, the attack in a Moscow airport arrivals area demonstrates that terrorists will continue to target aviation with their destructive, disruptive tactics, said Mica. The United States and every civilized nation must work together to employ every possible means to intercept, deter and prevent these murderous acts. This is another wake-up call.Now, in addition to the shoe bomber, the liquid explosive plot, the underwear bomber, and the attempted cargo aircraft attack, it is clearer than ever that terrorists will use any and all means to destroy life and disrupt the aviation industry, whether in Russia, the United States, or any other nations airspace. We must not let our guard down.
