New Saudi King Named In 9/11 Suits
IBD ^ | January 26, 2015

Posted on 01/27/2015 7:14:15 AM PST by QT3.14

President Obama should think before bowing to Saudi Arabia's new king in his Tuesday visit. King Salman has a history of funding al-Qaida, and his son has been accused of knowing in advance about the 9/11 attacks.

When it comes to jihadism, Salman bin Abdulaziz al Saud is more of a hardliner than his older brother, King Abdullah, who died last week of a lung infection. As such, any commitment he makes to helping the U.S. destroy al-Qaida and Islamic State terrorists should be viewed with great suspicion.

The 79-year-old Salman once ran a Saudi charity tied to al-Qaida and has been named a defendant in two lawsuits accusing the Saudi royal family of helping the 9/11 terrorists, one of which the U.S. Supreme Court recently let move forward after years of being blocked by the State Department and the well-funded Saudi lobby.

The Kid knew in advance about 9/11. In footage today, he’s shaved his beard and mustache.

The Sultan rushed to demonstrate his fealty to the new King who is the Guardian of the Holy Places. That is why he Bowed to the Saudi king on his first trip. He bowed to everyone else to change the direction of the raised eyebrows back home, except, of course, the queen of England whose hand he shook.

I found out everything I ever wanted to know about the Saudis when I read “Hatred’s Kingdom” by Dore Gold. The book came out about 10 years ago.

I wish more people would read this book. They’d realize that many of the roots of terror (coming from the Middle East) can be traced either directly or indirectly to the Saudis.

The money and influence they use to spread their version of Wahhabi Islam is particularly alarming.

All the more likely Obama will be bowing and scraping before him.

Obama will be in the cockpit of AF1 to make sure the pilots have the balls to the wall so he can get there quickly to show fealty and obeisance to his masters, those who got him where he is today.

New Saudi King Named In 9/11 Suits

Keep in mind that shortly after 9/11 Bush made arrangements to let top Saudis leave the Country, even when no one else was allowed to fly, and although 15 of the 19 hijackers were Saudis, NO ACTION has been taken against Saudi Arabia.

Keep that in mind if you think it might be a good idea to jump on the Jeb Bush bandwagon.

NO MORE BUSHES!

The new king (Salman) seems to be an anti-American bigot who has a long personal history of supporting al Quaeda.

Other reports have mentioned that he is already showing signs of dementia, and may not be that long on the throne.

Nayef, the next in line, led a crackdown on al Quaeda after they tried to assassinate him (by a suicide bomber with the bomb literally up inside his rectum).

Writer seems a little confused about who Obama is. Such a description of Salman gives even more reason for Obama to bow to him.

Oh, but we have our very own Saudi apologist here at FR who will be coming out to defend the Saudis. (Have not checked yet to see if he is on this thread.)

Obama’s rush visit to Saudi Arabia is just him reporting for duty.

Exactly! The book made extensive mention of that as well.
