I'm speculating this might be because a terrorist would want a halal meal, and couldn't have a regular meat meal, but might order vegetarian. (Sounds silly if you think about it. I doubt getting proper sustenance is at the top of an in-flight terrorist wish list.)</font>
I agree that it is silly -- by and large. Our American experience with the 9/11 hijackers indicates that they had a fondness for alcohol too. Not a very "halal" thing to order and pay for and imbibe.
