The issue isn't "will it down the plane in a giant fireball" though. It's an issue of interference and endangerment.
Terrorists yes are going to want to 'get the job done', no, they're not going to use laser pointers -- but that doesn't really disprove that pointing lasers at aircraft isn't dangerous or isn't a problem.
Terrorists don't want to distract, flash blind, disorient or confuse pilots, they want to blow the plane to bits. Doesn't mean that distraction, flash blindness or disorientation isn't very dangerous to air travel.
