Also, I don't think a terrorist could sink one because there so big.

Terrorists don't have to sink cruising ship to achieve their goal, there is 3000 or more people crammed on those ships. If the small plane hits cafeteria or patio deck hundreds will be killed and thousands of future potential passangers will be scared to take a cruise.

"Also, I don't think a terrorist could sink one because there so big." I was being extremely sarcastic in that sentence.

If a small plane can carry a pilot plus 3 passengers, then it can also carry a pilot plus 700 pounds or so of C-4. That's a pretty big bang by anybody's standards. If they can rig up a way to carry it under the plane and drop it like a torpedo just under the waterline, they might make an impressive hole

Whether they kill 3000 people or 3 at a time think about the terrorists. All they can do is run up & punch us in the nose & then run & hide. They are pathetic, small time morons.

Horse hockey - 9/11 changed the game. Nobody is gonna listen and behave meekly to terrorists anymore. Just look at the Richard Reid incident, that adrenaline is pumping through you you're thinking of your loved ones and family tell me you ain't gonna stand up and kick some terrorist's ass.
