I'm only surprised this hasn't happened already. This would seem to be a rather simple terrorist act to carry out in comparison to the planning required to carry out the 9/11 attacks. And you are right, such an act would almost certainly bring down the aviation industry. It would be a long time before you would get me on a plane again and I'm one who flew hundreds of hours in C-130s when I was in the Marines.

What should be our response to such attacks?

Kill them all. Kill every last one of those Islamic terrorist bastards like the cockroaches they are. And completely bar any Muslim from coming into this country ever again.

Even that won't be enough. We have to drain the swamp, and that means either we begin a crash nuclear power program or we seize their oil fields. I don't have any problem with either or both.

TWA 800. Check out the more than a hundred witness reports of a streak of light ascending into the sky before the plane blew up. And check out the strange behavior of the government during the ensuing "investigation." Such as the fact that the CIA, which is theoretically the foreign intelligence service, made a film about why all those witnesses were wrong, about a domestic carrier plane carrier that crashed in domestic waters, and broadcast it during prime-time newscasts. Or how it came to be that the head of the NTSB managed to "accidentally" fall overboard from an FBI-controlled ship, and soon thereafter went along with the FBI takeover of the "investigation." And about a hundred other similar things.
