In all seriousness - this is very troubling.
I have heard discussion elsewhere about the idea that perhaps this was a "test run" in which case the responsible parties may not want to tip their hand yet. Very bothersome about level of "security" worldwide, but with stolen passports getting through unscathed - in tix (1-way)purchased immediately prior to flight.
Makes me glad to take my shoes, jacket, belt off and nearly empty my carry on multiple times per week.
There. Rant over.
