People these days.. I can't believe it! You're actually trying to pin the blame on the passengers of the planes?
Think about it logically for a second, I doubt the Hi-jackers went around the plane announcing to the passengers that they'd be used to tear down the WTC towers.
The passengers would have just been told it was a run of the mill hi-jacking and that they'd be released once their demands were met.
I very much doubt that under those circumstances you would have
taken those bastards out ;
I'd say it's unlikely you would have done anything more elaborate than piss in your pants.
If I was a hostage, and told that we'd be released once the demands were met, I'd just sit my ass down in the hopes I wouldn't get anybody killed by being an impulsive ass, and hell, I'd definately be scared.
Think about it; even if the passengers were told they were going to crash into a really huge rock, they would have rushed the terrorists. If they were going to die ANYWAY they would have done something about it.
So you can imagine that they DEFINATELY would have rushed the terrorists if they were told they would be used to take out the WTC towers. Far better to die a hero than a coward. If you're going to die anyway, that kind of sombre thought would make sense to you.
So if the terrorists were intelligent enough to orchestrate this kind of horrendous attack, they certainly would have enough common sense to tell the passengers the "usual" hi-jacking story.
**Sigh**
I imagine the passengers didn't click onto what was happening until they saw the WTC buildings out of their cabin windows....
