I understand just fine, thanks, and if you note from my post my decisions on flying have zero to do with the chance of blowing up. I do not choose to carry the industry's water for them, in re my friends and business associates. They are free to choose based on their own analysis.
A parent at my daughters school recently told the school (very publically) that she was pulling her daughter out of a school trip to a show in London, because of fears over terrorism.
I see stuff like that all the time, in a variety of venues. To be fair, I chose to NOT take the wife to Egypt in the late 90's thanks to the shoot up of the German tourist group. So maybe I fell for it in that case.
