It is almost certain that the spectacular result of the impacts on the WTCs far exceeded the wildest dreams of the hijackers, not that they survived to gloat.
The fact that they both collapsed as they did could not have been forseen, by anyone. If the woman survived the inital impact, as we know she did, how can they blame AA?
Still, we are not lawyers so what does it matter what we think? It will be decided by a bunch of people who seem to have little grasp of reality. The same people who jail the man who defends his property by hitting the robber with a baseball bat. Who compensate the man whose nose was broken by the airbag after he hit a power pole.
What price sensible law?
