^Concur. This is a significant concern.

I seem to recall an incident (maybe in NJ or NY) a few decades ago when they caught foreign nationals attempting to fire on a U.S. civilian airliner. Can't find anything on the internet search-machine thingy about it though.

Further internet searching is indicating it may have initially been considered a cause for Flight 800 in 1996, but was apparently later to determined to be an electrical short in the central fuel tank.
