If he's not, I am.
It could be that they've been wanting to do it for a long time, but knew it wouldn't go over well, and that they are taking this opportunity to push it through. That's the most generous assessment I can give, though. If it's really that easy to transport chemicals that (a) are hard to screen for and (b) can be mixed to make a pretty damn powerful bomb, then they should have been banning all of this stuff all along, because it's a method that would seem to be highly likely to be used.
