What they do with the aircraft can not be predicted - but the actual act of hijacking is predictable and has been done many times before.

Exactly my point.
As for the deaths of those on the planes -- well, you do realize that heretofore hijackings were something that could be corrected
after the fact, right. I remember all those movies and video games from the late 80s and all through the 90s where the terrorists took hostages in the plane, and the counterterrorism units specialized in getting them out. Passenger 57 and Air Force One were the way terrorism was seen.
Which is why I brought up foreseeability.
