Suicide plane attack on US office

[Pixet]

A PILOT left a chilling internet suicide note blasting the American tax system today before flying his plane into a government office block as revenge, US investigators suspect.

Joseph Stack, 53, torched his own home in Austin, Texas, yesterday then flew the four-seater aircraft into a seven-storey office block nearby.

The software engineer had earlier left a note on the on the internet blasting the government and in particular the Internal Revenue Service who are responsible for tax collection.

He wrote: "Violence not only is the answer, it is the only answer."
Initially two employees were sent to hospital and another remained unaccounted for. But the whole building - which houses 190 IRS employees - had not been searched fully as flames ripped through the building. The pilot died in the incident.

His chilling six-page suicide note emerged on the internet after the incident and detailed his constant complaints against the IRS and letters to government officials he claimed were ignored.

Woah, that's pretty dier :/ He'll be labelled like a terrorist as with most people in the US who do anything remotely anti-establishment or through security (the UK hacker who had no intention to attack the US)

You won't get anyone doing this over the VAT tax increase :rolleyes:

It is very tragic but chilling when someone who sounds as if he has a very severe mental problem after years of fighting the IRS resorts to what is basically a terrorist tactic. His wife and daughter were rescued from the home which is a belssing.
