Rebuttal to Kevin Ryan on Plausibility of 9/11 Hijackings

Last month my request for revision was published at the International Center for 9/11 Justice, along with Kevin Ryan's rebuttal to it. I have now composed a response to his rebuttal. I originally planned on submitting my response to the IC911J for them to post there. However, they have a maximum word limit of around 2000 words, and I knew my response was likely going to exceed this. So instead, my response is posted here. I encourage readers to consider all of this information and decide for themselves who's right. I also respectfully ask the IC911J to consider what I've written here, and to revise their website accordingly. Kevin Ryan is, of course, more than welcome to respond to what I've said, and if he should produce a response, I will gladly post it here as well. 


Rebuttal to Kevin Ryan on Plausibility of 9/11 Hijackings

Introduction
In response to my request for revision submitted to the International Center for 9/11 Justice (IC911J), Kevin Ryan argues that my central contention in that paper is false; namely, that it is probable that the four hijacker teams could have overpowered the pilots on each flight, and gained control of the aircrafts on 9/11. He argues that I have not sufficiently demonstrated this, claiming my references do not support my conclusions, and there is evidence I’ve overlooked that contradicts my arguments. Here I show that it is Mr. Ryan’s claims which are false, and not sufficiently supported by the evidence he cites. As we shall see, Mr. Ryan’s response contains numerous factual errors, logical fallacies, irrelevant details, and misunderstandings of what I actually said in my original paper

Request for Revision of IC911 Point on Alleged 9/11 Hijackings

Roughly a month ago, I submitted a request for revision to the International Center for 9/11 Justice, which they've now published on their Debated Topics Forum. Alongside it, they also published a response from Kevin Ryan. Both papers can be accessed and read at the following link: https://ic911.org/debated-topics-forum. Or, you can access each paper individually at the following links:

They allow a response to be published within three months of the posted rebuttal, which I plan on writing and submitting in that timeframe. For now though, I encourage people to read both papers and decide who they think is right and makes the better arguments. I thank the International Center for publishing my paper. As I mention in the paper itself, I also thank Adam Fitzgerald, who made me aware of much of the information I included in the paper.
