What, our "friends" the Saudis?

I've been saying this for months, but our corrupt prostitute media has refused to say a word. Now they've been dragged kicking and screaming by 600 bereaved families to provide cursory coverage, although I notice the network news I watched did Not make it clear the Saudis were involved. How circumspect of them.

These brave families will get NO cooperation from our government or out rotten state department. If anything they will be blocked and harassed by the government.

I can tell you the first defense that'll be raised by the Saudis and their corporations that are sued: The Foreign Sovreign Immunity Act.

I've represented foreign corporations, and if they're majority-owned by a government, they have considerable immunity. Don't know that it will fly for all of the defendants, but get ready for it.
