Wow, Bernard Hammelburg needs, a successful bomb blast, killing lots of people, to make him realise the dangers of terrorism. What a response to the brave Dutchman's bravery and resulting precautions! Would Bernard Hammelburg, react similarly, had he been on that flight? Wonder how would have Bernard Hammelburg reacted to that terrorist on flight?
