seriously in such moments it's difficult not to sympathize with Obama - who else would want such job, to become grey haired in 12 months? However Mr Obama need not panic and keep his cool.
He already approved a list of stupid and fairly uneffective airline security measures further angering Muslims. Mr Obama should understand that playing into the hands of extremists he will only perpetuate this conflict and will make it unwinnable.

Which is exactly what the military/industrial/Congressional/MSM empire wants along with the Chinese government. Hell of a team, don't you think? In the end, might makes right. Nothing has changed since the caveman.
In sum, the attack generated more expense (a nice return in red ink for a relatively small effort) even though it failed.NOTE: This is hilarious given the only thing that did work to stop the attack was (again) quick thinking/heroism on the part of the passengers on the flight. This implies that the real reason for all this 'action' is more about bolstering nation-state legitimacy (why do we spend all this money in taxes on these massive bureaucracies) than preventing attacks. Failure is interesting, as a strategy, because it doesn't require the necessary planning, funding, and training required for a potentially successful attack.

The Christmas Day bomb plot was very successful: it resulted in the closing of 5 embassies in Yemen!
