Trun on the TV, see it for yourself.

Wh & FBI say explosion, true coincidences in life are rare, do you expect the center fuel tank ruse to work again?

I agree that coincidences of this kind are "rare." It's New York, it's a departing flight, it's a plane with a very good record of safety and reliability.

But I don't see how, with the wreckage still burning, you can make a CONCLUSION yet (FWIW, I haven't heard "White House confirm" anything. Everything is speculation right now, just speculation).

EVEN IF it turns out to be terrorism, what does that change? We're bombing h*ll out of Taliban/al-Qaeda right now. I hope we go on to our other enemies in the Middle East. But this is war.

Perhaps we're too used to being able to sit back comfortably and have Peter Jennings explain it all for us.
