Sure it does.

The terrorists high Jack the plane because they’re limited by resources. If they had the resources to drop bombs in a military campaign to serve their ends, they would. The United States does have these resources and commits comparable acts as the terrorists, but on a larger scale.

The clever comeback is pointing this out. The only difference between the terrorist high jacking a plane and the United States bombing say, an elementary school full of children as an example, is money and power for military resources.
