Six years after the worst terrorist atrocity in U.S. history, not a single lawsuit filed by the relatives of the 9-11 victims has gone to trial. With only 21 cases remaining, it appears increasingly likely that the book may be closed on the 9-11 litigation without a single case ever being heard in court.

The 9-11 litigation process is approaching the final phase of the Zionist-run cover-up of what really happened on September 11, 2001.

There are two recent news items, which have not be widely reported, that indicate that the walling up of the truth is nearly complete. There are just a few remaining bricks left to be put into place - about 21 to be precise - and the wall hiding the truth will be finished.

The first news item, from September 18, is that 14 of the 35 remaining suits filed by relatives of 9-11 victims, seeking compensation from the airlines and the foreign-owned airport security contractors, were settled out-of-court one week before the first case was to go to trial.

The first trial was to start on Monday, September 24 but that case was among those settled. The next trial is scheduled to begin on November 5.

It should be noted that this will not be a 9-11 trial in which any liability or accountability will be determined. In a most unusual reversal of legal procedure, U.S. District Judge Alvin K. Hellerstein has ordered that six trials for damages take place before any trial for liability.

Judge Hellerstein, who oversees all 9-11 litigation, has done this, he says, in the hope that both sides may use the damage figures as a road map toward settlement.

Only 21 cases remain of the original 95 cases filed in federal court. The rest have all been settled or dismissed.

"The rush of settlements leaves open the question of whether any trials will take place," the New York Times reported on September 19, 2007.

The second news item, from September 22, is that the lawsuits filed by some 300 workers allegedly sickened from working at Ground Zero will not be heard in New York state courts but will be moved to the federal court of - you guessed it - Alvin K. Hellerstein.

The state's Appellate Division ruled that all claims tied to injury, death or loss of property from the 9-11 attacks fall under the jurisdiction of Manhattan federal court.

This is clearly an incorrect ruling, however, because the worker lawsuits are not against the airlines or the airport security companies, which were relegated to Hellerstein. These "sick workers" cases are against the City of New York, which is clearly not within the judicial purview of the federal mandate of Judge Hellerstein.

This is a very unfair ruling and set-back which corrals all the workers' lawsuits into Hellerstein's courtroom. This ruling overturned a decision by a Manhattan Supreme Court judge, who had allowed the workers' bids for litigation to proceed in state court, even after they filed late notices of claim against the city.

Close to 9,000 lawsuits by workers whose health was affected by working at Ground Zero had already reportedly been filed in the federal court.

These developments reveal how the relatives of those killed on 9-11 have been effectively denied the discovery, justice, and accountability they have sought through litigation.

The law firm of Motley Rice represents all remaining families who lost loved ones aboard the airplanes involved in 9-11, according to firm's press release of September 24, 2007. Alicia Ward, director of communications for Motley Rice, confirmed this and the next court date of November 5.

"Several of our clients chose to settle after we reached the amount that they wanted and after we completed years of discovery and investigations that were more extensive and probing than even that completed by the U.S. government's 9-11 Commission," attorney Joseph F. Rice said. "We gave them answers and accountability which was denied them by the U.S. government's victim compensation program."

The terms of the settlement, however, bar families from discussing the details so it appears highly unlikely that the evidence obtained by the "extensive investigations" and "years of discovery" will ever become part of the public record.

Mike Low, whose 28-year-old daughter, Sara, a flight attendant on American Airlines Flight 11, told the New York Times that he was not deterred by the settlements.

"The frustrating thing is not having a trial date," he said. "The wheels of justice turn excruciatingly slow. It doesn’t change my mind any. My desire and goal is to try to find some answers. I want to know why Abdulaziz Alomari and Mohamed Atta were allowed to walk on planes in Portland, Me., with prohibited weapons. I want somebody to tell me why that happened."

By now, it should be evident that the court of Alvin K. Hellerstein is not likely to produce the answers the Mr. Low wants. Hellerstein's court is clearly part of the apparatus for concealing the truth of what really happened on 9-11.

Why, for example, have individuals peripheral to the 9-11 crimes been put on trial while key suspects like Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (KSM), the confessed "mastermind," are kept locked up in their cells in Guantanamo, Cuba? What kind of discovery is going on there?
