I think he was referring to group A takes plane hostage, group gets
everyone's attention and describes threat posed by group B if demands
aren't met by a certain amount of time ... to prove they are serious,
Group A kills the passengers (and prolly suicides afterwards) ... Group B
is the real threat ...
