why the hell would you suddenly spout "I am not a terrorist" when no-one has even implied as such

----------------

Why would it freak someone out, when no terrorist (to my knowledge) has ever declared "I'm not a terrorist" ... right before hijacking a plane?

We don't even have an indication it actually did freak them out. To me that's just a speculative justification, giving authority the benefit of the doubt.
