the last Hijacking

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Grassroots Information Coordination Center (GICC) : One Thread

Tuesday may have been the last Hijacking incident of our times. Regardless the weapons used to threaten passengers and crew members, none will cooperate with any Hijackers after witnessing this horror. Now that everyone fears that Hijackers are likely to be Terrorist, its not likely that anyone will cooperate with them. Passengers and crew, believing they will die anyway, are sure to rise in total rage against anyone or any group that attempts to Hijack an aircraft.

I think you are right, Justo. This is the first time a hijacking has occurred, that I know of, where the plane was used as a suicidal weapon of war.

Good point. I'm sure able bodied men will attempt to resist in any future hijacking attempts IF any ever occurs again, which is also unlikely.

It may cut down on some of the elevated temper tantrums, too.
