Terrorists who are hell-bent on killing thousands might just resort to killing a few individuals, and then assuming their identities. There's no shortage of bums here in LA that wouldn't be missed if they suddenly disappeared.

Of course, that assumes that terrorists who are hell-bent to kill thousands of us wouldn't simply fly under their own name. Much simpler and thus far, mighty effective.

Except in the minds of those few individuals who think that the terrorists can be screened against "lists" and somehow neutralized.
