Saudi Arabia is facing a $6 billion lawsuit by dozens of U.S. insurers who claim the Saudi regime helped fund and orchestrate the 9/11 attacks.
In a lawsuit filed on Thursday in the U.S. District Court in Manhattan, insurers representing the families of 9/11 victims say that elements within the Saudi regime are liable for the attacks which killed nearly 3,000 people.

Reuters.com reports:
Insurers, including Liberty Mutual, Safeco, Wausau and many Lloyd’s syndicates, accused Saudi Arabia and a state-affiliated charity of providing funding and other material support that enabled Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda to conduct the attacks.
The Saudi government has long denied involvement. Lawyers for the government and the charity, the Saudi High Commission for Relief of Bosnia & Herzegovina, on Friday declined to comment or could not immediately be reached for comment.
Saudi Arabia long had broad immunity from Sept. 11 lawsuits in the United States.
That changed in September, when Congress overrode a veto by former President Barack Obama and adopted the Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act, permitting such lawsuits to proceed.
The insurers said they plan to show that the Sept. 11 attacks were an “act of international terrorism” within the meaning of JASTA. They are seeking more than $2 billion in compensatory damages, plus triple and punitive damages.
At least seven lawsuits were also filed in the Manhattan court on behalf of individuals.
These include a lawsuit on Monday by families of about 800 attack victims, as well as 1,500 people injured after responding to the New York attack.
Until last month, the insurers had been appealing a Sept. 2015 dismissal of their case by U.S. District Judge George Daniels in Manhattan, who oversees many Sept. 11 lawsuits.
But the appeal was vacated after Saudi Arabia, the insurers and other plaintiffs agreed in a joint court filing that JASTA “was intended to apply” to their cases, and that Daniels should review its impact.
The case is The Underwriting Members of Lloyd’s Syndicate 53 et al v. Kingdom of Saudi Arabia et al, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York, No. 17-02129.

The
American Military High Command knows that Bibi Netanyahu ordered his
Mossad and stateside Dual Citizens to attack America using nukes on
9-11-01 on behalf of the Rothschild Khazarian Mafia (KM):Soon mainstream
America will know that Bibi Netanyahu and his Likudist Party deployed
the attack on America on 9-11-01 on behalf of the Rothschild KM:
They thought that they had complete control over the CMMM and could
prevent any of the secret IAEA and Sandia Labs investigation from ever
being released to the American public. http://www.veteranstoday.com/…/the-hidden-history-of-the-i…/
Whack job
Oh golly six billion. Way to make them pay. And am I going to see any of this money? You better fking believe I’m not. After my college fund that my late great grandfather set up plummeted from $103,000 to $30,000 as a direct result of 9/11.
And how many trillions were the American taxpayers swindled out of as a direct result of 9/11. 6 billion, what a joke!
I can’t wait to see them squeal and pull Bush, Cheney and the rest of the shadow gov down with them.
THIS IS WORTH REPEATING…. for the ignorant people that have swallowed all the MSM docos shit

There two important pieces missing in this article. First, 911 was an inside job, and second the Mossad with help from neocon planned and executed 911, the Saudi provided the money, to believe that OBL financed and orchestrated 911 from a cave in Afghanistan is to say the least downright stupid, you’ll have to be in on it or a complete idiot to believe in so the called “official story”.
Whack job.
