AA 587 Why?

Submitted by Bob the pilot (United States), Feb 26, 2007 at 14:15

I have just read the comments concerning AA 587. What would be accomplished by sabotaging AA587? Who was on board that would be a target for assassination? Who would gain from the act?

Does anyone have any plausible answers to these questions?
