In law we have this notion called "foreseeability." It requires that you know your action/inaction is likely to result in a foreseeable type of harm. Under this standard, no one in the government, past or preset, would be held accountable for 9/11. It was simply too outlandish -- and the fact that Hollywood may have hypothesized it makes it only that more unforeseeable.

It is only now that we know the terrorists were seeking "blockbuster" plots that were aimed at being "Hollywood-ish."
