There is something else that bothers me and keeps me looking for an answer.
How could 4-5 men armed with only razor blades take over 150 people? And while
passengers wittnessed the terror inflicted on the crew of the plane still nobody
had the courage to fight those bastards? Apparently someone did on one and
perhaps saved White House and plane went down well short of the goal.
Perhaps as society we are so used to Hollywood version of rescue operation where
one HUGE HERO suddenly appears and overpowers the enemy and it all ends great.
In real life it seems fear
overtakes all other senses and make people follow commands from hijackers. While
risking only some injuries few brave men could jump on those bastards and kill
them right there.
I know, some of you may say it's easy for me to argue here, never experienced
the real ordeal, and you are right. Still it makes me think...
