The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey says it will file a lawsuit against Saudi Arabia for damages suffered in 9/11 terrorist attack.

"The government agency that owns the World Trade Center site said Friday it intends to hold Saudi Arabia and nearly 100 other defendants liable for the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks that killed nearly 3,000 people and destroyed the complex."

"...Those familiar with the filing said there is unease within the Port Authority's hierarchy about taking such an action to protect the agency's financial interests. There is also concern, they said, that New York Gov. George Pataki, a Republican, might be wary of upsetting President Bush, who strongly supports Saudi Arabia, publishes the Star-Ledger."
