It's not the rate that counts if your list is intended to stop people who have an elevated risk of carrying out an attack. > Worrying about terrorism is extremely foolish. I'm not debating the merit of the list or terrorism policy. But if you have a list in the first place then it's illogical to say its size should be relative to the number of successful terrorist attacks on planes. Not without more information about the distribution of terrorism inclination in the population.
