Would these new scanners have picked up this latest attempt?
I believe not - The material was sen into his underpants and given the resolution of the pictures I really don't think they would have helped.
I doubt these will make travel safer, They will however reduce the number of security staff required to process a certain number of travellers in a certain time.
They are about saving money - if they make people feel safer too I'm sure that's a welcome side effect.
If you really want to do this you have to do what El Al do and interview every traveller before they're allowed to fly but that's very time consuming and will probably be unacceptable to all but the most paranoid

Still, they should give security staff something interesting to look at, after all those fruitless years of staring at Xrays of shoes.

The technology is new, however once in place it will improve. If you dont start you will never get there as there wont be the investment.
As for playing into the Terrorists hands, maybe. But so is doing nothing.
Until the world is ready to stand up and really fight muslim fanatics it will unfortunaltey get worse for us all.
