so Rice should have ordered all US airliners grounded the first day she took office, is that it?

Why in heavens name would she need to ground all aircraft? Just a note to the airlines, a word to her boss, and a little back and forth with the CIA and FBI. Ask the Israelis how to go about the business of making planes hijack proof(or close to it). Or ignore the threats, let the worst happen, then say there is nothing that could have been done. That is not only a lie, it is a provable one. If Rice was not informed at all, then of course she could do nothing, but if she had even heard of the plan, she could have at least called all the heads of the airlines, and began a process. It is the least anyone would do. It is part of her job description, she failed, she deserves scorn, but will not get it. Probably for the same reason McNabb gets the kid glove treatment.
