Cutaway’s Submittal To Schneier’s Movie Plot Contest

I just posted the following entry to Schneier’s Movie Plot Contest. I hope it is worth while. Please let me know what you think in the comments.

————————————-

I have not read the previous submittals so I hope nobody has thought of these.

Three separate attacks, possibly synchronized.

1. A shipment of fancy new cellphones that were built in Eastern Europe is hijacked. Currently the cellphone is being shipped without a specific feature but the case has been designed for its future installation. This empty space is filled with explosives and the phones are configured to detonate at a specific time period. Of course, the explosives have been hermetically sealed to avoid detection.

2. A terrorist infiltrates an online community (chat room or even better a gaming community) of white supremacists. He recruits several youths, outfits them to be suicide bombers, and has them attack a high profile Muslim target. The terrorist then releases a press statement that has crusader like undertones to work up the Muslim hysteria in the hopes of sparking a holy war.

3. Terrorists attempt to sink a super aircraft carrier in the inlet to San Diego harbor in an attempt to cause economic hardship in the area and show that they can take out large military targets within America. Of course, this plot is foiled by military trained dolphins guarding the inlet.

Crazy yes, but it is a movie after all.
Thanks,
Cutaway

Interesting. Am I being watched already? I doubt it but maybe it will be interesting to keep a watch for the next couple of days.
