Weird
Begs the question about airline security. While they're strip searching and anal probing grandma how does someone get close enough to one of these jets long enough to paint these markings on them in the first place?
And don't you think they'd have called someone in by now to tell them exactly what they say? This started in February and they haven't determined if they're Arabic or Arabic-type, let alone what they say?
WHO THE FUCK IS RUNNING THE SECURITY SHOW HERE?
Oh. Right. Nevermind.

KNX 1070 EXCLUSIVE: Feds Probe Possible Arabic-Type Markings On Southwest Jets
LOS ANGELES (CBS) — Federal agencies were working with Southwest Airlines on Thursday to determine who has been vandalizing their aircraft with mysterious markings.
KNX 1070 investigative reporter Charles Feldman has learned that since February, several Southwest jets have been vandalized with mysterious writings that show up on the underbelly of their 737 passenger aircraft.
The writings — which some have interpreted as being either Arabic or Arabic-type symbols — appeared to have been done with a chemical process that reveals the text once an auxiliary power unit is turned on and heats up the outside skin of the aircraft, according to Feldman.
While it remains unclear how many aircraft are involved, the trend has reportedly increased in recent weeks.
Southwest Airlines has ordered its employees not to discuss the matter with the media, Feldman said.
In a statement to KNX 1070, Southwest said it is working with authorities to find those responsible for what the company called “vandalism”, but it’s not clear how many people are involved.
Both the Transportation Security Administration and Federal Bureau of Investigations is working with Southwest, but the airline denied this is a safety issue and would not provide any more details.
