Legal responsibility war vs. terroristic bombing: In a technical sight war only can happen between nations after a formal declaration. In a wider sense responsible can be every person, company or institution involved in causal-chains that eventually leaded to the disaster if - they failed to do actions / precautions which could have prevent the terroristic action f.e. BA: - production of vehicles that can be misused as bomb (car-producers were sentenced for exploding gas-tanks!) - omitted installation of well known (!!!) security-technic for surveillance and remote-controlling of planes UAL/AA: - operating of dangerous equipment - insufficient prevention against known terroristic risks Airport-operators - insufficient security: f.e. the logical position for a metallic-detector would be the plane-entries Security-agencies - missing or bad consultation and operation* Government / intelligence agencies - omitted publishing of concrete warnings - omitted checking of suspected flight-reservations - omitted enhancing of security-checks in airports with enhanced risks (less than 15 min. to flight to "favorite" targets) - omitted legal prescription of known and available security-technical equipment in airports and airplanes - possible cynical acceptance of victims during the attacks* - omitted legal prescription for special constructions like tall buildings, nuklear plants etc.: thus the risk of earthquake in NYC should be by far less than the risk of terroristic attacks: where's the prevention? I'm not expert but I think there would exist a bunch of possibilities for filing if a foreign company was involved ng ng ng. However - far behind all private liability a government that acts like it acts tolerating (unevitable!)terroristic attacks against his citizens has a more than moral responsibility to support the victims in every possible manner. BTW - say a VERY rich person should be involved: where his assets are invested? The next attack can hit anybody and it could get by far worse - I will not "publish" ideas here, you Americans produce enough terrorist-instruction-"manuals" "printed" in Holywood**** and brain-washed in school-kids everywhere around the world. There's a bunch of possibilities, and every day it's getting worse considering accelerating technical advances. In a human society this would be the opportunity to re-consider advantages vs. risks of common accepted technologies and to re-consider the legal situation of insurance-prescriptions given a aggressive and risk provoking foreign politic. JT * re. insurance: will they (our great intelligence-services) at least check if the terrorists were insured possibly with an US life-insurance? how much money do you need for "financing" the living of 12-20 fanatic terrorists, any flight-lessons and a few knifes? Guess the most expensive of all were the flight-tickets. * just a question: how did this plane with the just symbolic destination "Camp David" came down? No "external" impact? **** Movies need suspense - therefor all operations seem to be very riskful: in reality you probably can get the "modernest" killer-virus (of course developed in US on US-citizens-tax) from a room-maid for a burger-diner.
