Re: [OPE] The Science of 9/11

What I learned from "Twelve Angry Men" (the movie or play) is that one
person's skepticism of the 'standard', can lead to a process of
considerable questioning of the 'standard', to the point that the
'standard' no longer can be sustained under a reasonable doubt criterion.
Finally, all twelve voted acquittal. Yet, "Twelve Angry Men" never
proposed an alternative before reaching that 'reasonable doubt'.

Massive doubt about identities of 9-11 alleged hijackers is particularly
warranted because of lack of evidence (not even flight manifests with
Arabic names, DNA tests of remains even when families made such offers, nor
airport security cameras -- Atta's was in Portland, ME, not Boston, MA;
most others, none at all). A defensive attorney should find her or his
charge of defense to be an easy one in a fair courtroom (except for the
power of the prosecutor's office).
