samclemens Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 talk about a tough as hell stance on terrorism. its kinda understandable, considering the problem they have internally with chechnyan muslim terrorists. just thought it might strike some people here as interesting. http://www.breitbart.com/news/2006/03/06/D8G64V180.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 If there was a plane hijacked in this country, and it approached an urban center, even heading towards an airport...I wouldn't be totally shocked if it faced the same fate if it made even the slightest incorrect move. If it was considered just a hijacking, the Israelis have proven repeatedly that just shooting down the plane is the wrong strategy...if you're trained and prepared for it, there are ways to win in that situation, even if some percentage of the hostages don't survive. A finite survival percentage is usually better than a 0% survival. But of course, you have to judge based on the circumstances, and Russia doesn't have the Mossad.
