"Both real and fake bombs entail the same risk of detection getting onto a plane."
You cannot be so stupid as to believe this.

The fact that the passengers reported a terrorist with a bomb on Flight 93 clearly troubles you. So you invent a theory that it was just a "fake" bomb. Can you tell me other cases where Islamic terrorists used a fake bomb? I can tell you lots where they used a real bomb.
On 9-11 there was virtually no risk in taking a bomb on a plane. Screeners had NO WAY TO DETECT EXPLOSIVES! The terrorists knew this. Richard Reeves did it a few months AFTER 9-11, when security was even tighter.
Here is your chance to make a billion dollars. The federal government would love you to tell them how to detect bombs on passengers using visual inspection and metal detectors. Because they can't do it.
