I agree. I also know it is easy to say if you have never been through it.

The first hero of 9/11: Daniel Levin may have been the first casualty. The FBI believes that Levin--an Israeli citizen and graduate of Sayeret Matkal, [sorry Emile] the Jewish state's elite commando unit--resisted the hijackers on Flight 11, the first plane to hit the World Trade Center, and was murdered by Satam Al Suqami, a 25-year-old Saudi. In an article translated by the Israeli group IMRA, the Hebrew-language newspaper Yediot Ahronot reports: The FBI relied, among other things, on the testimony of the stewardess Amy Sweeney. Sweeney called Michael Woodward, the flight services supervisor in Boston, from the rear of the plane: "a hijacker slit the throat of a passenger in business class and the passenger appears to me to be dead." To this day the American investigators are not convinced that Danny Levin was murdered on the spot. An additional stewardess, Betty Ong, who succeeded in calling from a telephone by one of the passenger seats, said that the passenger who was attacked from business class seat 10B was seriously wounded. . . . That battle in the business section ended quickly. Levin was overcome and bled to death on the floor. Two additional flight attendants were knifed and the captain was murdered. The hijackers were already inside the cockpit. They announced to the passengers to remain quiet in their seats. opinionjournal.com
