What can we do, UW? If we have a plane that won't answer, that we believe is hijacked,

i was not clear enough...i do not question the need for the order.
i question giving the authority and then telling us all is well.
if all is well why do we need such an order?
i think the SecDef and /or W should have provided a detailed news brief on the threat and why this is now necessary...instead they issued the authority and told us everything is 100% A OK.

does anyone really believe that we are giving the ok to shoot down airliners but flying is 100% safe?

the message is a trifle confusing and smacks of pure bs to me...and hey! i like these guys.
