Without trying to finger point, I find it a little embarrassing that our
military, with its capability of developing contingency plans for coping with
****ant countries like Granada, Kosovo, and probably Monaco, hadn't gotten
around to thinking outside the box enough to deal with flying Boeing 676 jet
fuel bombs. It now seems that there was a little advance notice about that
kind
of attack developing. Unfortunately, for whatever reason, that "heads up"
warning from the spooks never got to the guys responsible for putting
together
plans and procedures for dealing with such eventualities.

Heard somewhere recently that the Atlanta olympics DID have plans to deal with
suicide aircraft.

I haven't heard that in connection to the 9/11 hearings disclosures about
NORAD/FAA actions this week. All you heard was "no one ever thought of this,
or planned for it."
