What The Heroes of Flight 93 Could Teach Obama If They Sat Together On a Plane « NewsReal Blog: "Eight years ago, a young father boarded United Flight 93, waving good-bye to his two sons and lovely pregnant wife, Lisa. Shortly after the plane took off, three radical Islamic Jihadists hijacked Todd Beamer’s plane and forced the passengers to the back of the aircraft. Phone calls made to family told of the horror in New York and Washington D.C. The stewardess, the businessmen, the young girl all looked at each other. They knew they were being flown to a high-profile destination and would plunge to their deaths, killing everyone in their path.

The seamless movement by which the group passed from grasping their peril to declaring their independence is breathtaking. They wasted no time hoping for another reality, they did not lie to themselves. They accepted that, if they did not resist with the very core of their being, they and many others would perish. So they fought and saved, perhaps, thousands of lives, though they themselves did die. Todd Beamer, who never lived to hold his baby girl, breathed the Counter-Terror battle cry of 9-11 America, “Let’s Roll.”

On November 5, another Radical Jihadist, Nidal Malik Hasan, hijacked Ft. Hood Military Base and slaughtered fourteen Soldiers and an unborn baby, while wounding thirty others. Every American knew the truth the moment they heard that a man yelling “Allahu Akbar” had opened fire on fellow soldiers, the man was an Islamic Terrorist and this was 9-11."
