Well, I guess everyone is entitled to an opinion, even if it's based on blind faith in spite of physics and evidence of the contrary
They weren't knives, they were box cutters. And I guarantee I could put you on your knees and and make you sing "Mammy" with one.
At the time no one could conceive of a bunch of loons using the planes as weapons instead of just landing and making demands. The policy until that time was let them do what they want until you could land.
The US never had fighters patrolling the air space of this country. Fighters could be scrambled in response to a threat, but they never patrolled the air space. That has always been done with radar. For the most part it still is.
The only person with blind faith here is you. Blindly following a conspiracy theory and ignoring facts.

You get more with a kind word and a two by four, than you do with just a kind word.
