Under insurance's definition, murder is an accident. I got asked this during an insurance talk last time. ie kenna murdered, accident plan will pay off.

That insurers choose to pay under accident plan is their own policy decision that I will not quibble with. But I think it is absurd to say that 9/11 was an accident when it was a murderous act of terrorism. Those radical Islamists purposely (not accidentally!) steered the planes towards the buildings with the intent to destroy life and things.

IF, and that's a big IF, it was an inside job, all the more cannot be considered an accident ya? Or does the word "accident" no longer mean what it means?
