When seconds count, cops are minutes away. In this case the cops were thousands of feet below, and oblivious of any suicide bomber. A Merry Christmas to the lads who stopped this terrorist act.

>>>A Merry Christmas to the lads who stopped this terrorist act.

Lots of people missing the point in favor of the feelgood story. NOBODY stopped the terrorist act. It failed of its own volition when the explosive fizzled.

Taking away nothing from the courage of tackling the terrorist, but had the explosive worked they’d never have been able to act. The plane would have crashed.
