BY DAVID KIEFER 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.

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.
