  2. Jeffrey Goldberg took a box cutter, a knife, an Hamas flag, and Osama bin Laden T shirt and other contraband in his carry-on luggage with no problem. He showed his stash to Stephen Colbert last night. When he flew home with the same items, only a tube of lotion, a gift from Colbert, was confiscated.
