hindsight...noone knew that the first two were intended for the towers, you could say that the third should have been shot down as we then knew that the intention was to kill all on board and cause massive damage as a result of the fate of the first two but if the first one or two had been shot down not knowing where they were actually headed and given the history of hijackings....I think there would have been quite an uproar
