So I've been thinking a little about how these “liquid terrorists” apparently were planning on taking out the plane, and whether it would work or not. Rather than creating a “bomb” with the liquids, the goal was to create a poison gas, which would kill or incapacitate everyone on board… But the problem is, the plane might not crash — depending on the system of autopilot in it, it might even be able to land at its destination (and if not, at least fly for hours until it runs out of fuel), fully automated, full of nothing but corpses. It's certainly a poetic attack.
