So, as the 20th anniversary of 911 approaches, Netflix has a bio-pic of Kenneth Feinberg.  In 2001, his helpful generous jewish face :lmao:  was constantly on the television, boasting about how the (hush)money was flowing to the 911 victims.  And, now, on the 20th anniversary, when people still have questions about 911, there he is again, on the television, trying to hush things up.

Soon after the attacks, Feinberg is tapped to lead the fund by President George W. Bush's attorney general, John Ashcroft, and is immediately ready for the challenge.  [Yeah, like he didn't know it was coming, did he?  :lmao:]  He compiles an actuarial formula to objectively assign a dollar value to each life lost and devises a plan to get at least 80% of impacted families to agree to the fund. Feinberg is so confident in his mission that he insists he take on the work pro bono.  [What a generous jew!  He worked for nothing!  Out of the goodness of his heart, he jammed government money into the mouths of the goy, so they stop asking questions about 911.  :lmao: ]

He's confident, that is, until the families start pushing back and the hardened lawyer sees the error of his thinking. And there are other bits that question the worthiness of the entire project: For example, we learn the fund itself only came into existence because Congress wanted to protect the airline industry from being sued into the ground.  [Yeah, sure, it was all about the airlines, and not about hush-money to keep the goy quiet.   :lmao: ]

Since 9/11, Feinberg has applied his considered, humanistic approach to victim compensation to many successive American tragedies, including the Tree of Life synagogue shooting in Pittsburgh. It's work that will continue to strike many of the affected as essential and others as superfluous, even damaging to victims' memories. The central Talmudic question governing Feinberg's life — "What is a life worth?" — remains an ongoing project.   <:^0
