Gosh, it's almost like W and Dickie weren't straight with us. (I figured this deserves its own thread).
" Twenty-eight pages of a joint congressional inquiry into the 9/11 attacks were classified by the George W. Bush administration, which claimed they contained information that would hurt the war on terror.
But some lawmakers argue the pages reveal little about national security and a great deal about the government of Saudi Arabia’s role in the attacks. They say that the pages tell the story of Saudi officials meeting with and even funding two of the 9/11 hijackers when they first arrived in the U.S."

Imagine if Barack Obama had the ties to the Bin Ladens stretching back decades and he was President on 9/11. And Bin Laden family members were shuttled out of the country on that day. And Barack Obama's brother was in charge of security at the WTC (Marvin Bush).
When the full reality is disclosed about the Bushes and Dick Cheney, history will not be kind to these men.
Many people have had access to the 28 pages, including the FBI. As the article states, there is no evidence that the Saudi ruling family had any direct ties to the hijackers or their helpers. The clerical part of that government is a different story. That's why it describes the changes within the government in Saudi Arabia right after the Gulf war.
I have no problem believing that the clerical faction of the Saudi government had ties to the terrorists. Probably in a funding capacity. I also have no problem with the release of the 28 pages. It would most likely have a serious negative effect on US/Saudi relations but I don't give a shit about that. It would make it more difficult for us to stage another invasion in the territory. I'm all for that.
Bush. Rumsfeld and Cheney should be subpoenaed to Congress and then referred to the Justice Dept. or other body to answer for high crimes and treason against the American people.
The Shop
If Bush and Cheney wanted to invade Iraq, how did they convince 19 Al-Qaeda terrorists to collaborate with them on their mission?
Or maybe they had a plan to go to war but no way of launching it until they were handed the gift of a terrorist attack on 9/11.
Too hard for me to believe. I think 9/11 was a legitimate attack from a Jihadist group. Bush and Cheney devised the best plan they could to prevent further attacks based on the information they were given from both the FBI and the CIA.
The sooner people divorce themselves from this right/left paradigm the better.
The last sentence is a great goal. Just not going to happen. It would be a little more accurate to call it the Rep/Dem paradigm though. There are people of the left and right that are not party hacks. They are rare and hard to find but they exist. They can actually have a debate and even change their minds but never Rep's or Dem's. With them it's not right or wrong or what's good for the country. It's only team victory. I've grown to despise them both.
That doesn't mean Dick Cheney remote-controlled the aircraft with a joystick while cackling in some underground bunker. It's more of an extremely complicated backstory and context that entirely changes the narrative.
Pit Row
I've responded so far because the story lends credence to possibilities of Saudi government involvement. That has been discussed as a possibility from day 1. However, I completely reject the "inside job and controlled demolition" BS because that is exactly what it is. Bullshit. If that's where you're headed with this Saudi story then disregard any and all responses I've made in this thread and carry on without me.
BTW, you guys should really read Bush's book, Decision Points. I learned a lot about the rational behind his decisions, and the complexity of the situations he was in. Even if you don't like him or agree with him, it's a very insightful read.
Expecting Joe Blow to figure this out is asking too much. But even Joe Blow can see something is very, very rotten here.

The Bush administration clearly protected their friends in Saudi, and shifted the blame to a completely unrelated country, Iraq.
I just think these documents should be made public so we can judge for ourselves to what extent Saudi supported this.
you have to reject the inside job "BS" otherwise you'd have to admit to being lied to massively by your own government and you just cant do it, you can not handle the truth.
