Imagine the huge can of worms this would open up...:scared


In a stunning report by the New York Times, Saudi Arabia has told the Obama administration and members of Congress that it will sell off hundreds of billions of dollars? worth of American assets held by the kingdom if Congress passes a bill that would allow the Saudi government to be held responsible in American courts for any role in the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

Saudi officials have long denied that the kingdom had any role in the Sept. 11 plot, and the 9/11 Commission found ?no evidence that the Saudi government as an institution or senior Saudi officials individually funded the organization.? But critics have noted that the commission?s narrow wording left open the possibility that less senior officials or parts of the Saudi government could have played a role. Suspicions have lingered, partly because of the conclusions of a 2002 congressional inquiry into the attacks that cited some evidence that Saudi officials living in the United States at the time had a hand in the plot.

Those conclusions, contained in 28 pages of the report, still have not been released publicly.

The dispute comes as bipartisan criticism is growing in Congress about Washington?s alliance with Saudi Arabia, for decades a crucial American ally in the Middle East and half of a partnership that once received little scrutiny from lawmakers. Last week, two senators introduced a resolution that would put restrictions on American arms sales to Saudi Arabia, which have expanded during the Obama administration.

Families of the Sept. 11 victims have used the courts to try to hold members of the Saudi royal family, Saudi banks and charities liable because of what the plaintiffs charged was Saudi financial support for terrorism. These efforts have largely been stymied, in part because of a 1976 law that gives foreign nations some immunity from lawsuits in American courts.

The Senate bill is intended to make clear that the immunity given to foreign nations under the law should not apply in cases where nations are found culpable for terrorist attacks that kill Americans on United States soil. If the bill were to pass both houses of Congress and be signed by the president, it could clear a path for the role of the Saudi

Meanwhile, the city of Cleveland is preparing for potential violence. Over the past two months, the city has sought bids for 2,000 sets of riot gear, knee and shin guards, breastplates, and other protective items for its police officers, as well as flexible handcuffs, collapsible batons and miles of interlocking steel barriers.

The equipment will be funded through a $50 million federal security grant.

?We are excited and we anticipate a great convention,? said Daniel Williams, a spokesman for Cleveland Mayor Frank G. Jackson (D).

meantime , America has to spend 50 million for security for GOP Cleveland


its sad

Is the total net worth of Cleveland even close to $50MM?

he families of 9/11 victims in the US are reportedly infuriated at the administration of President Barack Obama for 'siding with Saudi Arabia' over a congressional bill that could incriminate Saudi officials for the deadly attacks on September 11, 2001 in America.
The families of victims are making a renewed push to declassify 28 pages of a 838-page congressional report on the worst terror attack on American soil, which points the blame towards Saudi Arabia.
Until now,the Obama administration has so far refused to reveal the contents of the missing pages and looks to be leaving the decision to a Congressional vote.
Speaking to the New York Times, Mindy Kleinberg, whose husband died in the World Trade Center on September 11 said: 'It's stunning to think that our government would back the Saudis over its own citizens.'
Ms. Kleinberg is part of a group of victims' family members pushing for the legislation against the Middle Eastern country, however so far all attempts to sue the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia have failed.
The group says the Obama administration has 'consistently sided with the kingdom' and thus thwarted their efforts to learn 'the truth about the role some Saudi officials played in the terrorist plot.'

got to love them , we have no choice still after all these years

 

[Duff Miver]

Well.....it's true most of the 9-11 attackers were Saudis....

But to punish the Saudi government?

That makes as much sense as punishing Charleston, SC because of Dylan Roof.

Or Nevada because of the Bundy criminals.

 

[buddy]

If the U.S. has reason to believe the Saudi government funded the terrorists, hold onto the bar.

That's the question, isn't it? You and bbbbbuddy claim it was the government of Saudi Arabia, but you offer no proof whatsoever. If you two are ever able to up with anything tangible, let us know. Until then you are just blowing smoke.

It's generally accepted by those who actually KNOW something that the 9-11 terrorists were funded by Osama bin Laden out of his personal fortune of several hundred million dollars.

Yes, bin Laden was a Saudi, but he was not any part of the Saudi government.

Blaming the Saudi government for 9-11 is just plain stupid.

If the US government knew they had funded 9-11, Riyadh would have intermediately become a huge, radioactive smoking black hole. And the Saudis damned well knew that.

They may not be our BBF, but they aren't gong to commit suicide either.
