Do you know how you know Algore did not invent the internet?

Because it hasn't been re-invented ten times.

Witness (Haikm Hasidh)

Haikm Hasidh???? Are we SURE he was a WITNESS??

[Lady Jag]

Isn't 215 lbs kinda chubby for 5 ft 8?

Maybe they tried to make him buy two seats.

Ive gotten more from FR, especially Saber's reports from the LA media than Ive gotten on any of the cable networks...

Looks like a takeoff emergency, the very worst situation of all, and the pilot did the best he could. Straight ahead and level, wheels up to improve glide ratio, aim for the water to "pancake" in and avoid people on the ground, overshot but not by much. He darn near pulled it out, looks like he went down fighting to save his plane. God rest his soul and comfort his family.

[Inkie]

Exactly.

El Al got tired of getting hijacked and their people murdered! THEY PROFILE EVERY PASSENGER. If you fit their profile, you do not fly with them; and they are not the least bit bashful about it. They have not had a hijacking since they began that practice.

Geeeee, maybe we could learn something here!

Also, their security are trained to USE their weapons, not just carry them around (unloaded).

Shimon Perez is saying that this is a terrorist attack and US and Israeli forces will track down the terrorists.

[bluefish]

Me too. I got myself from 225 to about 205 though and stayed their for months. Now I'm back to really trying hard to get down even further and I stopped at 200. I swear, I am going to chop an arm off if I don't drop a couple of pounds in the next week.

Given it's (obviously)near the El Al counter,there's a high possibility it's a Hebrew name, particularly for an Israeli; they're not all named "Stanley Fishman" or something over there.

[SC Swamp Fox]

My TV is on, but you know where I am getting my news.

Are you going to make it to our Chapter Meeting in July, or FrivaLV in August?

[Sabertooth]

KABC 7 ... Still unkown if El Al or Police shot shooter... 2 victims besides fatality victim shot... Mayor Hahn at LAX... press briefing soon

Israeli consulate spokeswoman referring to shooting as "terrorist" ... but concedes information scanty... stating that El Al agent was "serely injured," which conflicts with fatality report...

I just heard that on Fox News .. what the heck is going on??

[LikeLight]

For real? Perez?

[visagoth]

From a Google - looks like the pilot (Brand) is a Dentist.

[undergroundwarrior]

Very Interesting???. Strange that Peres would go so far out on a limb to suggest terrorism, without having any information.

[Joe Hadenuf]

Thanks, we got some good ground images a few minutes.

NOW HEARING PLANE SKIPPED ON THE WATER, AND OVER SHOT THE LAKE GOING ONTO SHORE STRIKING CROWD. looks like an accident. Very unfortunate 4th of July accident.......

[Mo1]

For real? Perez?

[Skooz]

[LikeLight]

Alright, why are we having to get our info from a foreign government? Paging Tom Ridge.
