The airport security at a 9/11 airport has said he thought one of the lead terrorists was a terrorist, but didn't say anything because he was scared of "discrimination" charges that could be brought against him.That's the first I have heard of this. Do you have a source?

I'll see what I can find. I remember watching it on TV because the airport screener or worker himself said the words. Maybe it was the History or Discovery Channel.

First-hand accounts abound in Zero Hour. David Tuohey, the security screener at the Portland, Maine, airport where Mohammed Atta and accomplices boarded their connecting flight to Boston, recalls thinking “If this guy doesn’t look like a terrorist, no one does” — but not wanting to assume the worst, doesn’t act on his suspicions.

I recall they guy directly mentioning he was scared of calling the guy a terrorist. Not "not wanting to assume the worst"
