Judge George Daniels will soon decide whether he will allow their lawsuit against Saudi Arabia to move forward.
Families of the September 11th attack victims were back in federal court in Lower Manhattan Wednesday morning in their long-running attempt to hold Saudi Arabia legally accountable for the World Trade Center attacks.
The families obtained home video, unsealed in federal court in June, of a Saudi national who FBI officials believe worked for Saudi Arabia's intelligence service giving a tour of the U.S. Capitol building in 1999.The Capitol has long believed to have been one of the targets of the September 11th hijackers.
The video and other disclosures uncovered by the 9/11 families have prompted them, along with some former law enforcement officials, to call for further investigation into the Saudi role. Saudi authorities have long denied involvement or support in the September 11th attacks, and government lawyers are attempting to have the families' case dismissed.
