Credit where credit is due. We have been harsh on the US government for not responding quickly enough. According to this NY Times article (heard elsewhere too) the decision to immediately ground all flights and close US airspace appears to have prevented two more disasters on Tuesday. Good work and thank you. Also note that because the would-be hijackers are still alive, there may be a chance to get clues and evidence that otherwise would have been lost. [Scripting News]

USA Today: "Yarkoni said crucial mistakes were made Tuesday in the United States. The first two planes which hit the World Trade Center may have surprised the authorities, but he said the third plane should have been found and shot down before crashing into the Pentagon 45 minutes later. Israeli warplanes would have been airborne within minutes, he said, while it took the U.S. air force an hour to launch its fighters." [Scripting News]
