Lucky they did not try it here. Folks don't accept being hijacked anymore. Somebody would have gotten a big can of whoopa##.

I think some posters with "Pope Go Home" would've been easier on their part.

so they hijacked it with the intention of landing in italy to protest the pope's upcoming visit to turkey?

Looks like they were friendly Christian hijackers instead (no weapons, no bombs, no threats of violence...they just wanted political asylum and the Pope was "a friend".) One can easily make a comparison between modern Christian hijackers and modern Muslim hijackers, but I won't go there.

The Pope said Islam is a violent religion so we are going to prove just how wrong he is by hijacking this plane!

Religion plays no role in any hijackings.

Well, it is easy to say that it was religiously motivated or not religiously motivated at all. I think it depends on each case. Lets not generalzie.

Unarmed hijackers? WTF?

If they had tried that sh!t on a US airline, about a dozen passengers would kick their asses.

Can't say I'm surprised. No one trys any sh!t on American jets anymore, they know better! :evil:

If they were unarmed on a US Flight, the Air Marshalls would have taken care of them and then the hijackers would have sued later for mistreatment.

Don't fool yourself.

Armed hijackings have become impractical everywhere for political terrorists.


Glad everyone is safe though!

see, if they were violent they would have killed everyone on the plane. so obviously they are non-violent people.

Hijacking a plane is a form of violence.

I would almost love for some douche to stand up with his cohorts and some box cutters and threaten to take over a plane. I think after any military guys had their crack you'd still have a plane full of people more than willing to beat them down.
