A Long Airplane Trip...

What was that line about "a long airplane trip," when the lead asked what they were going to do to her? Wasn't that mentioned earlier in the film? Does this mean they weren't even going to give her a trial, and that they just drop terrorists out of an airplane? If this is the case, then the lead was pissed off, because they were killing his unborn child. In the end, the government was killing an innocent person just as the terrorists were going to do. I guess ultimately he was somewhat convinced by the terrorists. It implies that our government are also terrorists :-(
