Only two F-16s? The only way to show our seriousness in the face of terror is to spend more. Lots more. Next time we should darken the skies with our response. And throw in a marching band to show our fighting spirit.
Smoking a cigarette in the bathroom causes nationwide panic and an intercept by two F-16s.
