It's easy to control an unarmed women and men (who probably had no idea of their fate) with sharpened knives.

Yup. It's easy for us armchair quarterbacks to say what we would have done, in hindsight. But, odds are, this ain't likely to happen again. Next time some Mid-East types hijack a plane, I think we'll see what we saw with the plane that crashed in PA: "We're probably going to die, but we're going to do something about it". Ready....set.....hut....hut....hut hut....BUM RUSH

The plane that crashed without making it to Washington likely benefited from the heads-up via phone.
