S.F. attorney: Bush allowed 9/ 11

Of The Examiner Staff

Stanley Hilton now figures his case is stronger because of a coalition of attorneys, victims' families and bipartisan legislators who gathered in Washington on Monday to condemn the government's lack of action in preventing the Sept. 11 attacks.

Hilton is the San Francisco attorney who filed a $7 billion lawsuit in U.S. District Court on June 3 against President Bush and other government officials for "allowing" the terrorist attacks to occur.

Among Hilton's allegations: Bush conspired to create the Sept. 11 attacks for his own political gain and has been using Osama bin Laden as a scapegoat.

Hilton said he has information that bin Laden died several years ago of kidney failure.

"I hope it will expose the fact that there are numbers of people in the government, including Bush and his top assistants, who wanted this to happen," Hilton said.

His class-action suit named 10 defendants, including Vice President Dick Cheney, National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, and Transportation Secretary Norman Mineta. Hilton said he represents the families of 14 victims and that 400 plaintiffs are involved nationwide.

White House spokesman Ken Macias and Department of Justice public affairs officer Charles Miller each said their departments were unaware of the lawsuit.

Hilton, Sen. Bob Dole's former aide, has been publicly critical of conservatives in books he has written about Dole and the Clinton sex scandal. Hilton, who said he has sources within the FBI, CIA, the National Security Agency and Naval intelligence, demands Bush's impeachment and believes the truth will come out in trial.

Hilton claims the Bush administration ignored intelligence information, refused to round up suspected terrorists beforehand, and during the hijackings refused to disable pilot controls and switch to a ground-based remote system.

He claims the government benefited from installing a puppet Afghan government friendly to U.S. oil interests.

Hilton also says Bush used bin Laden's antagonist image to create a public frenzy, which allowed the Bush administration to tighten its political grip.

The 'leadership' of Saudi Arabia is buddy-buddy with the Bush Administration. That's why it doesn't raise a stir about it funding terrorism, forbidding the practice or believe in Christianity or Judaism or Hinduism within its territory, etc. etc.
Of course the Admin pushed the TLAs (Three Letter Agencies) to leave Saudi Arabia alone, while its citizens plotted 9/11.
Bush has been bought just as surely as I bought the bagel I'm eating.

I'm glad to know that someone is out there . . . doing the important if not crazy sounding - but who knows these days??!! - work for us in here in our cubicles.

I'm here to report a bagel having been stolen. Be on the lookout for someone posting who takes on the persona of Bill Gates.

Speaking of bagels, I was given a bagel today left after a staff meeting in my office and I thought it was quite good. Have you tried these cheese bagels!? Civilization is doing great things nowadays!

Hilton's work must be supported. If the mainstream media pulls the curtain on this trial, then we must do what we can to make it news.

Demonstrations should be timed to coincide with the opening day of the trial.
A vigil of no fewer than 100 should be present throughout the trial. If the mainstream media doesn't cover it, then demonstrations should take place at media outlets.

This trial may be our only chance to bring Bush's complicity on 9/11 out into the open. The circumstantial evidence is overwhelming. We must help Hilton to succeed.

The author of Out to Lunch should, as also we should, please take into consideration that the Israeli secret service warned the the Bush administration at the White House of the planed attack of the WTC prior to 9/11. The author should not be angry with the Jewish people listening to legitimate warnings. The anger should be focused at the Bush administration and the big business who helped steal the election. I don’t think the Al Gore would have performed as George Bush Jr. the Commander and Chief of the most powerful military force in the world when he was told at 08:55 of the most tragic terrorist attack of this nations existence and he Watches it on TV says, "There's one terrible pilot." Reads a book about goats to third grade children for about 20 minutes, gets a short briefing, addresses the nation on TV, and then hides out for 9 hours and 30 minutes until all is clear.
Out to Lunch?
New York City is full of Talmudic, Zionist Jews: Russian and European Jews, American Jews, English Jews, Canadian Jews, Israeli Jews. Jews from all over the world, both rich and poor, find their home, or home away from home, in The Rotten Apple. Anyone can tell you that New York is a Zionist Jew city.
New York is a world banking center full of pecuniary, Talmudic Jews who manipulate the world's financial markets. It's no secret.
Everyone knows what buildings sat in the heart of the New York City financial district, The World Trade Center Complex. The name pretty much says it - it was the world trade center. The World Trade Center was full of investment firms, insurance conglomerates, loan companies, and every other form of monetary institution.
These businesses were full of Zionist Jewish employees, many straight from Israel, and many others who travel back and forth, to and from, Israel on a regular basis. It doesn't take a great leap of a person's imagination to figure out that the WTC towers were full of thousands of Zionist Jews great and small, from Israel and everywhere else. That was what you would expect to find on an average day. But September 11, 2001, was not an average day.
The eyes of the entire world were upon President Bush when he gave his official address at 9:00 P.M. on September 20, 2001. If you happened to have missed it, you can see the text of the Address to a Joint Session of Congress and the American People at http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2001/09/20010920-8.html. In this address, the President states that "more than 130 Israelis" had "died with our own".
I thought to myself, 130 seems like a small number. If someone would have asked me on September 10, 2001, "How many Israelis do you think work at the WTC complex?" I would have guessed at least ten times that amount. Well, he did say more than 130, which means that there may possibly be a great deal more. But on September 22, two days later, according to The New York Times, the President was wrong, very wrong.
You can find the article, Officials Say Number of Those Still Missing May Be Overstated at http://www.nytimes.com/2001/09/22/nyregion/22NUMB.html, but if you want to review a copy of it, The New York Times will charge you. However, with a bit of research, I found it for free at http://groups.google.com/groups?selm=c0c6feba.0109220447.4d00e6ce%40posting.google.com.
It states:
"But today, Alon Pinkas, Israel's consul general here, said ... there were, in fact, only three Israelis who had been confirmed as dead: two on the planes and another who had been visiting the towers on business and who was identified and buried."The single Israeli death can be confirmed at http://www.mfa.gov. This is the government of Israel's official Ministry of Foreign Affairs webpage. They even list his name, Shay Levinar. Many of us have undoubtedly viewed the reports that assert that thousands of Israeli Jews laid out of work on September 11. It's not hard to understand the evidence that serves to support the theory that the government had prior knowledge of the coming destruction of September 11, but did the Jewish working public really know as well? Out of all those in Manhattan, only one sole Israeli was killed? Hmm, let me guess. They must have all just taken an early lunch ...
With all that having been said, let's discuss some of the Jews close to George Bush. We have already mentioned Colin Powell and Ari Fleischer. One of Bush's Foreign Policy Advisors, Richard Perle, is a known Jew with a history of sending classified government documents to the Israeli Embassy and also worked for Soltam, an Israeli company which builds weapons. Yet, he is allowed to continue working in our government. A close friend of Perle's, Paul Wolfowitz, also a Jew, is Bush's Deputy Defense Secretary. This list just goes on. The Jews Robert Satloff and Elliott Abrams are National Security Council Advisors. Dov Zekheim, Under Secretary of Defense and Comptroller, reportedly has dual citizenship with Israel.
Douglas Feith, Under Secretary of Defense and Policy Advisor at the Pentagon has even closer ties with Israel. He is closely associated with the Zionist Organization of America, has advocated anti-Arab policies, and runs a law firm which has only one office - located in Israel. This law firm, Feith and Zell, is known for representing Israeli Armaments Manufacturer.
Marc Grossman, a Jew, is Bush's Under Secretary of State of Political Affairs. Richard Haass, Director of Policy Planning at the State Department and Ambassador at Large, is also Director of National Security Programs and Senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations. He likes to promote bombing Iraq, as does Robert Zoellick, another Jew (U.S. Trade Representative). Other Jews include Henry Kissinger and James Schlesinger (both pentagon advisors who advocate bombing Iraq). Don't you feel secure knowing that National Security rests in the hands of Jews with close ties Israel?
Steve Goldsmith, Senior Advisor to the President, makes frequent trips to Israel. Other Jews on the list include:
Mel Sembler - President of the export-Import Bank of the United States;
Joshua Bolten - Chief Policy Director;
Adam Goldman - White House Special Liaison to the Jewish Community;
Joseph Gildenhorn - Bush Campaign's Special Liaison to the Jewish Community (also, former ambassador to Switzerland);
Christopher Gersten - Former Executive Director of the Republican Jewish Coalition. He is married to Linda Chavez, Labor Secretary;
Mark Weinberger - Assistant Secretary of the Treasury;
Samuel Bodman - Deputy Secretary of Commerce;
Bonnie Cohen - Under Secretary of State for Management;
Ruth Davis - Director of Foreign Service Institute;
Lincoln Bloomfield - Assistant Secretary of State for Political Military Affairs;
Jay Lefkowitz - General Counsel of the Office of Budget and Management;
David Frum - White House Speechwriter.
Not only are these Jews, but they are all pro-Israel lobbyists. To our knowledge, none have defended the Palestinians, who are being slaughtered by the state of Israel. Rather, they are ardent supporters of Israel. Just remember that it is a Jew writing those speeches you hear Bush giving and publishing photographs of the president with a big Jewish star behind him. Literally, the Jews are putting the words in Bush's mouth.

Umm.. Way to lie and distort the facts, dude. You're just not believable!
Corrections to your idiocy:
Jewish and Israeli do not mean the same thing.
There are Muslim Israelis, and Christian Israelis, and The vast majority of Jews in New York are NOT Israeli. Idiot.
Thousands of American Jews died in the 9/11 attacks, and your implications of a conspiracy are disgusting. I suppose you're one of those fucks who thinks that hyphenated Americans like Japanese-Americans, etc aren't true Americans...
by sue
T. wo commentators reponded to 'american doug.' Both resorted to character assassination. The second made an allegation about the number of persons killed in the 9/11 tragedy, but gave no citation. Doug did. One who is interested in learning the facts can learn nothing from character assassination. I was impressed by Doug's citations and by his identifications.

Huh. I don't get it. Why is it anti-Semetic to list all the Jews who work for Bush & Cheney?

After all, in all the world, it is only Israel who is pushing America to attack Iraq.

Given Sharon's insistence, it only makes sense to examine how many pro-Israel policy makers are bending the president's ear. And to ask "why" and what for.

American soldiers are being sent to war. Not the chickenhawks or their sons, and not Israel's sons. We need to know why.
by John M. Trott
How many Israelis, not American Jews, actually worked at the WTC? Please give me the source of your answer.

"Huh. I don't get it. Why is it anti-Semetic to list all the Jews who work for Bush & Cheney?

Sorry this doesn't hold one bit of water, at all. Jews and Israelis are two different things. Not all Jews are Israelis. Some Jews are Israelis, yes. But not even all Israelis are Jewish. This is akin to me saying "look, there is a Christian Democrat. Now I would like to have a list of all Christian members of the Republican party to see how many Republicans are actually working for the Democrats."
Right. It doesn't make any sense. That's because it's a bad argument, and a fitting analogy to your argument.

Hello,
Well I don;t actually know if Bin Landen is dead or has been dead before the 9/11 act but, I do find it hard to believe that 11 highjackers took 4 planes from 3 airports within an 1hour of each other. Wierd very wierd. I would believe one or two but four is a bit much.
But, there are other strange things about 9/11. Like after the first plane hit it was 20 minutes before the second plane hit. 20 minutes is a long time for a F-16. Plenty of time to send one up to bring down the second plane and certainly enough time to have shot down the 3rd plane. So what where they thinking. They knew all four planes where highjacked. They had them on radar. They knew at least one target (WTC) seeing as how one plane had already hit it. I know it is now one year later & they make up new stories like they where under the radar and such. But, last year at this time that is not what they said. They reported all four planes on radar and acknowledged that they knew where they were and where they were headed. Funny how the story changes over the course of a year. Then there is the strange story of the head of the Northern Alliance in Afganistan. He had been at war with the Taliban for many years and had taken several POW's from the Taliban. He had a meeting with (then president ) Clinton and Tony Blair in March of 2000. In August of 2001 the head of the North Alliance meet with President Bush and Tony Blair ( again ) giving urgent info on a impending terroirst attack. It was so top secret that 30 FBI agents present at the meeting quit thier jobs with no apparant reason. Wierd is it not. To top it off the Head of the Northern Alliance was assasinated on Sept. 9, 2001. Odd is not the word. Can't have any whistle-blowers can we. See the 9/11 thing was probrably planned by Bin Landen but it was encourged by members of our government. I will not mention names but, I think we all know who was at the controls. So all those tears are acting. Someone has others objectives and we best try to find out what they are. May God Bless Americans and give them eyes to see. May God restore honest government to this blessed land. Those are my feelings. By the way most of the info I have just given was gotten thru a special on the Northern Allaince that I saw on MSNBC shortly after 9/11 and some of it came from specials on the history channel so this is not secret stuff just not well covered by a bais media. Think about it. It is all there for all to see but no one is looking. I got to admit it is clever.

First question: do you really think that a plane crashed in the Pentagon ? Look at the picture : obviously, NO. Many evidence of this fact : one hole for the nose, but where are the plane's wings ? It cannot be a jet. Now, why did the officials declare that it was a commercial plane? There's something bizarre...
I get bizarre email from time to time and someone sent me this, which I don't know what to make of:
