I would love to know who the passer by was - but I don't and probably never will.
You still don't get it do you? Of course it will never happen.
The Satam al Suqami passport charade is bogus. The passerby does not exist. He will never exist. Satam al Suqami was not on the aircraft.
The FBI created a tale (the grid search) which was official for over a year and then a lawyer for the 911 Commission decided that the tale (the grid search) was too suspicious, which it was, and changed it to an anonymous 'passerby' found the passport on the streets below and handed it to a NYPD detective who handed it over to the FBI without bothering to do a detectives's job, which was to maintain the chain of evidence, by obtaining the anonymous 'passerby's' name and identity, and a full description on a police report of the location and circumstances of the passport discovery.
This is what police officers do in most cities. What makes the passport more suspicious is that it could somehow survive undamaged in any manner in the pocket or luggage of a hijacker who most likely has a stolen identity, inside the crushing fuselage of an exploding fireball aircraft inside the 97th floor of the North Tower. This paper passport also had to pass somehow through the massive core structure of the North Tower and make it outside the south side of the North Tower, and miraculously sail itself against the wind 500 or 600 feet to the north to be found near Vesey Street, according to the original FBI official report.
Not bloody likely.

I won't bother repeating the response about the "chain of custody" nonsense. You know better than that. Exactly how have you come to the conclusion that the FBI is lying? All I have seen is some old quotes from CNN that are not very clear about who is talking about what and when. Do we have anywhere a clear statement that says, to the effect, "agents of the FBI physically located the passport while conducting the grid search the week after 9/11 at Vessey Street adjacent to the World Trade Center complex"? I don't think so, I think we have a FBI representative talking to the press the week after 9/11 and describing the grid search process and also telling them they have a passport of one of the hijackers. I think you have melded the things together strictly for the purpose of wanting to call the FBI liars and promoting non-existant conspiracies.
