I have to agree with The Hunter of Jahanna. You guys are looking at only the negative if thay hadn't done what they did there would have been 700 lives lost due to insane terrorist, not to mention destroying a perfectly good building. Don't you think that the US government would shoot down a civilian aircraft with hundreds of innocent passengers on board to protect life on the ground, or do a similar thing in similar circumstances. We probaly would not hear about it though because they would cover it up to avoid public outcry. North American politians are great at lying to the public or giving us half truths.
