An Israeli millionaire, expert in the MIT of Boston and former member of Tsahal’s elite force, tried also to counter-attack on Flight 11 in the early hours of 9/11.

Israelis are the first to hit back. They know how to defend themselves.

A lesson of courage for the West.

"Steger defended the university's conduct, saying authorities believed that the shooting at the dorm was a domestic dispute and mistakenly thought the gunman had fled the campus.

'We had no reason to suspect any other incident was going to occur,' he said.
"

Hmmm.

May G-d take this man to his side. That’s a real hero.

"I'm not saying there is someone out there, and I'm not saying there is someone who is not," Flinchum said

Well, thanks for clearing that up.

May God rest his soul, what a beautiful sacrifice. It is nice to know that in the face of evil there is still good.

Well, there was at least one hero. Had there been a few more that rushed the shooter, threw keys, phones, etc, the death toll would have been far less.

Students jumped from windows in panic.

A man with a pistol can be overwhelmed quickly if everybody jumps him.

Professor Liviu Librescu threw himself in front of the shooter, who had attempted to enter his classroom. The Israeli mechanics and engineering lecturer was shot to death, "but all the students lived - because of him," Virginia Tech student Asael Arad - also an Israeli - told Army Radio.

A holocaust survivor - he died in the most noble way - he gave his life for others.

Are there any "hero" stories among the student response to this crisis?
