I say no nukes, no war....

we find out who ordered it and send the Green Berets to kill them.

[ao98]

You are right. Two planes are hijacked and crashed into the buildings. Could be anybody. All it takes are two people to hijack planes and coordinate crashes. Any anit-capalist group or middleast terroist group.

[RedBloodedAmerican]

PLO will be to blame. It's tie for America to wake up and stop supporting and sympathizing with terrorist countries and set the record straight.

american flight number 11 was told it was being diverted to jfk.....

BUSH ON FOX NEWS, CUTTING SHORT SCHOOL VISIT RETURNING TO WASHINGTON. GET BEHIND THE PRESIDENT THIS IS AN ACT OF WAR!

[Loopy]

Yes, this is another Pearl Harbor. The ONLY solution to this problem is to find out who did it and reduce the country they are living in to complete rubble and sew the ground with salt so that nothing will grow. A la Scipio Africanus. This is absolutely war.

[RaginCajun]

CNN saying it was American Airlines 767 out of Boston.

[LJLucido]

I'm just glad we have some grownups in the White House and, DOJ and Defense Department. Let us pray for wisdom for our leaders in making the correct response.

[DonnerT]

One was a 757 from Boston.

Nuke Massachussets!

black humor DT

[BigWaveBetty]

Not even funny.

The planes crashed 18 minutes apart -- they're specualting that they timed the second plane to crash while all the news cameras were on the building. WWOR and WPIX in NYC are off the air, since they broadcast from the top of the World Trade Center.

My guess for a suspect is Iraq. We've been bombing the bejeezus out of them lately.

537 IS READY TO LOCK AND LOAD! ! ! ! !

They're all offline. Too much traffic.

From KFI Radio in LA the American Airlines flight was a 767 (freepers report 737) from Boston to LA. Aussie news cut to W's press conference ABC here. Second plane hit around the 60-70th floor as guessed by a former Trade Building wonker watching the crash live.

How do you *hijack* a plane and force them to fly into a building (reportedly ~240 people fully loaded)

A woman (daughter of a woman at work) coming out of a subway saw bodies falling to the ground......

Yes your right...I wrote this only in reference to our past vunerability to terriost acts. The constant left trying to block any money to defense provisions, the lack of airport security, the even casual air patterns they allow for lower Manhattan. I have always thought it was foolish to let planes fly over the island so close.

[blam]

80-130 people can fit on a 737 I think. At least a hundred.

[doc30]

If this was Bin Laden then:

Afganistan = radioactive parking lot

[Central Scrutiniser]

Depends on the series, the second plane was either a 737-300 or above, based on the engines, holds from 130-160 pax, 757 holds about 180 depending on airline. 767 can hold about 250-280 pax
