Someone on FR speculated earlier that they bet this what had happened. May God rest their souls for willingly giving their lives to save others. I pray their bravery will be a comfort for their families.

In the wee hours of morning the British TV reported that in their morning show, as well as the incident where Barbara Olson was ordered to call her husband back and tell him that they were going to die. Her last words were, "What should I do? What should I tell them and then they crashed."

We do have to bear in mind the adage that 'the first casualty of war is the truth,' and I will add that this is true and necessary. So, the stories will come out, but in dribs and drabs.

That was me, my thoughts from the beginning.

1 out of 4 resisting is also about consistent with current american thought and convictions. It was either the pilots, or the passengers that said "NO" to being hijacked by a few thugs armed only with knives. Too bad they did not survive, there were good people on this plane, people that chose not to be executed while sitting quietly in their seats, the only plane with more than sheep in it. There were heros on this plane, and they were successful, although they lost their lives, they did save another building, and deserve to be called heros.
