If they had of shot down the 9/11 planes they could not have been sure of there path, and weather people would die. You retards are why it did not get shot down this is because if they shot it down you would have all been saying "Booo Bush, shot down a plane and killed 100 people" but because the goverment where afraid they let it fly because if they acted they would have been ridiculed. !
what's all this crap got to do with iraq?
3 buildings get attacked and the US government pins it on afghanistan, and then goes to war on iraq because of it? i agree saddam should go, but that logic is insane!
the main reason people are so frightened of these 'terror attacks' is that the terrorists had penknifes. not even that, in fact they had box cutting knives. a whole plane of people against three guys with box cutting knives and nobody did anything? THAT's why people feel really uneasy about this. they know that had it been them there, in amongst a whole planefull of people, they too would have allowed themselves to be dominated by a couple of guys with box cutting knives. the fear of the US people comes from within.
If a good portion of the people on that plane had fought back against the few guys with box cutting knives, the terrorists would have been easily dispatched. this is in fact what happened on the fourth plane. the people heard on their mobile phones what had happened at the trade centre and they realised that sitting in their seats quietly was going to get them killed just the same, so a few of them fought back. that's why the plane didn't reach its target.
Ironically it is the fear of the US people that caused this inability to fight back until it was too late, but it is that same fear that bush is using to try and make his people willing to march off to war. the only way fear can win a war is if the frightened side has MUCH bigger guns, and that's what this whole UN weapons inspectors thing is all about to Bush and Blair.
i know i will get flamed but i call it as i see it. that's how it is. i feel that my opinion is not coloured by personal involvement, my only anger here is that the leaders of some countries are willing to allow many innocents to be killed in nasty ways just to serve their own personal ends. if those leaders want to fight a war, i think they should be physically made to fight that war on the front lines.
