Onderwerp: COME TO SURINAME: HIJACKERS POSE NO PROBLEMS THERE Onder het motto:......."Laughter the best medicine".... het volgende: After the Sept. 11 tragedies, the question has arisen: What would happen if Suriname were attacked by terrorists? A valid fear, but there is no comparison, because Suriname is much better prepared for such attacks. For example... 1. There are no tall buildings downtown for the terrorists to fly into. (the military already burned down most buildings which could be attacked) 2. At 8:45 a.m. no-one is really working. Those that have arrived at work have left for breakfast. Unless the terrorists would plan to bomb the individuals selling sandwiches or the lines of people getting food from their cars or those doing other errands. 3. If something does happen. Fire fighters and police officers will take their time getting to the scene. When they get there, they won't have any masks or other protective equipment, and there will be no water in the fire hydrants. When the building collapses none of the fireman or police will be hurt, because all of them will be watching the explosion from across the road or gone home 4. Only a fool would plan a co-coordinated timed attack using Suriname Airways. Most of the planes never fly on time and most of them need repairs. 5. Terrorists would also quickly find that Suriname is not a good place for an operational base. Trying to get a phone line from the telephone company means standing days in line. The same goes for getting a drivers license from the Police. 6. The night before any attack, when the terrorists would try to study the flight manuals, the power supply would probably go off, either because there was a fuel shortage, or because the equipment needed repairs. 7) The terrorists could also not use Anthrax, because the needed ingredients would be out of stock in the pharmacy. Other reasons why it wouldn't have happened in Suriname: The girlfriend of one of the terrorists would have told her sister-in-law, who would have told her co-worker, who would have told somebody else, who was a cousin of the Prime Minister, and the whole plot would be on the front page of De Ware Tijd immediately. The hijackers' rental car would probably also have gotten stolen days before the planned hijacking. However, even if the hijackers had succeeded in hijacking a Suriname Airways flight to Amsterdam, and pulled out their knives, the passengers would have laughed and pulled out their own: a) Bigger knives b) Guns c) Containers of Pom d) all of the above. Once the plane was recaptured from the hijackers, there would have been no problem in getting the plane back to its destination, even if the pilots had been killed. On most flights from Suriname to Amsterdam, there are at least 3 drug smugglers on board with pilot licenses, who could fly the plane back to safety. So dear friends please come to Suriname......terrorists wont bother you there.
