"t'aint natural" has hit it square on the meat of the bat as we say Downunder.

If litigation like this isn't stepped on very quickly then people will start suing for anything, like "being in possession of an offensive wife" or "breathing in a threatening manner" or "sleeping too slowly".

You may as well:-
i) sue the manufacturer of the aerobridge through which the hijackers boarded the a/c, or
ii) sue the company that made the machines that issued the tickets that allowed others to board the flights, or
iii) sue the manufacturer of the elevators in the World Trade Centre because they failed to work after the buildings were hit by a heavy jet, or
iv) sue the people who were lucky enough to escape from the towers because they didn't stay and die with those less fortunate - or,
v) sue God himself because he is the same god as the Islamic fundamentalists worship and someone's ultimately got to take the blame.

If you feel like venting spleen on lawyers, I have a thread in Jet Blast - "Favourite Lawyer Recipes" - which is a follow-on from "Open Season on Lawyers". Go ahead, let it rip! We are particularly in need of recipes for cooking the lawyers taken in the great lawyer cull to come!
