I'd think a SAM could take down a commercial aircraft pretty easily. At low altitude a large plane doesn't have room for error...just not enough thrust...or damage to a control surface could really screw them up.

Also just read somewhere that Saudi Arabia is still sending over a billion dollars a year abroad to sponsor terrorism. Too risky to use wire transfer so they just box up cash.
