If you assume that the following is the complete sentence then you have a point.

"I don't think anybody could have predicted ... that they would try to use an airplane as a missile,"

I have not seen or heard this comment anywhere else but the ". . ." in the middle suggests to me that the reporter has left something out that could change the meaning of this quote significantly.

Regards,

JS

Take a look at the following page:

news.bbc.co.uk

The original quote:

"I don't think that anybody could have predicted that these people would take an aeroplane and slam it into the World Trade Center, take another one and slam it into the Pentagon," she said.

JS

Edit: I stand corrected about the quote.
