Simply curious.

If the bomb threat was made in the US.... and the nearest runway was Regan National.... Do we think that the US authorities would permit a landing there?
Certainly the flight would not be shot down and the runway would not be blocked, so the basic answer is "yes". However IAD or BWI would be a better choice for all concerned for numerous reasons that have nothing to do with security.
