"Allah be praised"... to me, this would sound similar to a Christian saying, right before a crash, "Jesus, help me!" Now, you could read this meaning into that... "Help me, because I am scared, I just made a horrific mistake, the plane is going to crash, and I am going to die." Praising Allah, doesn't mean you are necessarily guilty of anything. And to me, it would be the most natural thing to say under the circumstances.

Hard as it may to be to believe, terrorists have been known to do such things.

That may be true but, the guy pushed the elevator controls down right after he said that, then they heard the voice of the copilot saying something like, "what the hell are you doing" its pretty clear the guy did it intentionaly.
