I agree with everything in your well-written post except for this unsupported allegation.
Could you please tell us exactly WHY those screeners should have been disciplined?
The September 11 Commission Report contains no convincing evidence that any of the hijackers were able to get ANY prohibited items (items that were then-prohibited) past security that day.
Boxcutters and short bladed knives (4 inches or less) were not prohibited that day.
