Don't bet on it,,,,, if they went through so much effort as to plan an attack of this size and complexity,,, (ie training terrorists to fly very complex large airplanes like 767's and 757's got them in sequence and full of fuel,) do you think that they would leave a trail??? the FBI is already chasing somone they found on the passenger manefest,,, I bet its a false lead or a dead end..... (you don't book a known terrorist onto a plane and use his real name if you are planing to hijack it... unless its a false lead...) It may even be a country that is a US ally, say for example Israel, the US doesn't give them enough help fighting the palestines (in their mind), so what better way to make the US wipe them out then to make the US think it was done by the palestines... I am not saying thats the case, and I really doubt it is... but it goes to show my point that there are more then two possible suspects... The only real hope I think is the black box's and the phone calls from the planes passangers to relies and emergency services. rgds Frank -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Lanman Sent: Wednesday, 12 September 2001 11:42 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Tom Brinkman Subject: Re: [newbie] Re: [LINUX_Newbies] USA TERROR ATTACK!!!! Tom; once again, a very good point or two! First, I think that we should remember that the IT community probably lost many colleagues today, and that also hits home. Regardless of their O/S of choice, we're all people of a similar mind. We share a natural curiosity, interest in learning, and passion in our craft. I believe that the IT professionals working in the World Trade Center are (were?) probably some of the world's best! I hadn't thought about it from that angle Tom. Thanks! Sigh! Now I feel even worse about this whole mess! But in the long run, I think the terrorists just "Shot themselves in the foot", because they just gave the U.S. "Carte Blanche". A TV announcer on CNN ( I think ), said today, that this tragedy was this generations' "Pearl Harbor", and we all know what happened with that one. This time, someone really "Screwed the Pooch" ! Notice how all the Allied Powers AND Germany are all denouncing the attacks today? Someone's in for a world of hurt! Right about now, Mass Religious Suicide is going to start looking pretty good to those idiots. You can bet that the U.S. is about to give them a major "Wedgie". Then guess who'll be dancing and celebrating on the rooftops??
