Agreed. That was SUCH a dumb thing to do. You do NOT negotiate with terrorists because it opens the floodgates. Even if they had to write off an entire plane its better than having terrorists know you're willing to conceed to them. >>
Next time an American plane gets hijacked (and hopefully it won't happen again), how about we blow them out of the sky and kill everyone on board, rather then negociating.
Geeze...some people are so idiotic because its not an American plane. People are people. I'm an Indian, and I know that Americans would never deliberatly kill people on board a plane when theres a possibility of averting it. It sickens me how much America look down on the rest of the world sometimes. (I was watching the foxnews channel, and they breifly reported what had happened with the Indian plane, and then went on talking about how it concerns Americans, rather then having concern for the people on board that plane)

This is about the sickest thing I've heard today. I don't give a damn who is on the plane, you don't 'write off' the plane because you're too stubborn to negociate. I'm pretty sure you wouldn't have said that about an American plane. Now if they planned to do something with that plane, like the attacks last month, thats a different story.
You DO NOT negociate with terrorists when they have no hostages.
