i though it was a given. blowing up a plane over water does nothing. they were planning to crash them in the USA

Well, we can let the Dems take power, and then when it happens we will know for sure!

Blowing up a plane over water makes it much more difficult to recover the wreckage. That's why the Pan Am flight that was bombed over Lockerbie was really meant to have exploded over the ocean. That used to be desirable for "old school" terrorists but may no longer be desirable.
