2006 Transatlantic plot goes according to plan.

Anyone here remember the 2006 Transatlantic UK bomb plot?

Well lets say the plot never gets found out and foiled by the police and the plan goes ahead like it was supposed to.
Carry liquid explosives on to 10 airliners and set them off while I'm assuming to get maximum casualties , over populated land either in the UK or the US.

What would be the reaction to this?
 
Horror and disgust obviously. Not sure how different things would be though since we've already seen enough terrorist thuggery to make all the difference. It might afford the police and intelligence agencies more powers to gather information. I don't know that airport security could be beefed up much more than it is, but it would certainly be looked at closely.
We're all pretty sickened already by the timeline we're living in. These events would just add to the general sense of outrage.
