We should encourage and teach self defense. Our war against guns has created a victim mentality. Pilots have heretofore been taught to comply with hijackers, as consistent with our victim-mentality war against guns. Guns enable self defense and deter criminals. If a foreign nation harbors or supports terrorists, America should dismantle their government if possible.
Nations bear full responsibility for any act of war perpetrated by their terrorists.
We should not just punish such a terrorist government. If possible, we should destroy that government. This will help deter future governments from supporting terrorism. When asked who could have been responsible for this, I stated on air that the Palestinians would have done this, but were incapable. Rather, this terror was done on their behalf against Israel s ally, and on behalf of the radical Islamic world by Osama bin Laden, the international terrorist protected by the Taliban government in Afghanistan.
