Confirmed: Top Saudi Officials Aided the 9/11 Jihad Plot
Jihad Watch ^ | JULY 17, 2016 | ROBERT SPENCER

Posted on 07/17/2016 5:13:04 PM PDT by Mr. Mojo

The 28-page section of the 9/11 report detailing Saudi involvement in the September 11, 2001 jihad attacks have finally been released (albeit with substantial portions still redacted), and it is now clear why one President who held hands with the Saudi King and another who bowed to him worked so hard all these years to keep these pages secret: they confirm that the 9/11 jihad murderers received significant help from people at the highest levels of the Saudi government.

The report states that Omar al-Bayoumi, who “may be a Saudi intelligence officer,” gave “substantial assistance to hijackers Khalid al-Mindhar and Nawaf al-Hamzi after they arrived in San Diego in February 2000. Al-Bayoumi met the hijackers at a public place shortly after his meeting with an individual at the Saudi consulate.” Around the same time, al-Bayoumi “had extensive contact with Saudi Government establishments in the United States and received financial support from a Saudi company affiliated with the Saudi Ministry of Defense.” That company “reportedly had ties to Usama bin Ladin and al-Qa’ida.”

Another possible Saudi agent, Osama Bassnan, who “has many ties to the Saudi government” and was also a supporter of Osama bin Laden, boasted that he did more for al-Mindhar and al-Hamzi than al-Bayoumi did. He also “reportedly received funding and possibly a fake passport from Saudi government officials.” The report says that at one point, “a member of the Saudi Royal Family provided Bassnan with a significant amount of cash,” and that “he and his wife have received financial support from the Saudi ambassador to the United States and his wife.” That ambassador was Prince Bandar, about whom the New York Times later noted: “No foreign diplomat has been closer or had more access to President Bush, his family and his administration than the magnetic and fabulously wealthy Prince Bandar bin Sultan of Saudi Arabia.”

Then there was Shaykh al-Thumairy, “an accredited diplomat at the Saudi consulate in Los Angeles and one of the ‘imams’ at the King Fahad mosque in Culver City, California,” who also “may have been in contact” with al-Mindhar and al-Hamzi.

Saleh al-Hussayen, “reportedly a Saudi Interior Ministry official, stayed at the same hotel in Herndon, Virginia where al-Hazmi was staying. While al-Hussayen claimed after September 11 not to know the hijackers, FBI agents believed he was being deceptive. He was able to depart the United States despite FBI efforts to locate and re-interview him.” Who got him out of the country?

There is much more. The report redacts the name of “another Saudi national with close ties to the Saudi Royal Family,” but notes that he “is the subject of FBI counterterrorism investigations and reportedly was checking security at the United States’ southwest border in 1999 and discussing the possibility of infiltrating individuals into the United States.” There is no telling who this could have been, but Prince Bandar’s unlisted phone number turned up in a phone book of Abu Zubaida, “a senior al-Qa’ida operative captured in Pakistan in March 2002.” Abu Zubaida also had the number of “a bodyguard at the Saudi Embassy in Washington, DC.”

The report also mentions a CIA memorandum that “discusses alleged financial connections between the September 11 hijackers, Saudi Government officials, and members of the Saudi Royal Family. This memorandum was passed on to an FBI investigator; yet “despite the clear national implications of the CIA memorandum, the FBI agent included the memorandum in an individual case file and did not forward it to FBI Headquarters.” Why?

There is still more, and with this much smoke, there is almost certainly fire: the Saudi connection to 9/11 goes to the highest levels of the Saudi government. And as I detail in my new book The Complete Infidel’s Guide to Iran, a U.S. District Judge ruled in 2011 that the Islamic Republic of Iran was liable for damages to 9/11 families because of Iran’s role in facilitating the 9/11 attacks. The judge found that Iran and its proxy Hizballah had cooperated and collaborated with al-Qaeda before 9/11 in planning the attacks, and continued that cooperation after the attacks.

After 9/11, the U.S. declared war on terror and entered Iraq and Afghanistan. But if Bush had really been serious about attacking jihad terror at its root, he would have invaded Saudi Arabia and Iran instead. Under Obama, the betrayal has gotten exponentially worse. There needs to be a full Congressional investigation now into why these 28 pages were kept secret for so long, with those responsible punished accordingly. And above all, the next American administration must make a searching reevaluation of our relationship with Saudi Arabia, and stop treating enemies as allies.

Reason number one why the Bush’s are pulling out all stops to undermine Trump.

So do the American military bomb Mecca and Medina or do would they be better used on the Bush family compound somewhere in Texas? The Bush family is scum.

How the #### did we end up in Iraq?

And if one supported going into Iraq, fine. But why not SA ALSO??!?!!!

At the time there was talk on FR that the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq were to establish military bases, and air superiority over Iran. If you look at a map you can see why this might have been plausible.

That idea faded as the war dragged on and the traitorous left went after Bush.

Obama put the sword through any leverage we had over Iran with his demonstrated love affair with Islam, and thus Iran.

...and discussing the possibility of infiltrating individuals into the United States.”

To be perfectly clear on that subject for anyone who has not read the redacted release on page 428 it is written:

...Bassnan also stated to an FBI asset that he heard that the U.S. Government had stopped approving visas for foreign students. He considered such matters to be insufficient as there are already enough Muslims in the United States to destroy the United States and make it an Islamic state within ten to fifteen years...

Certainly one of the more notable sentiments hidden.

And that would have worked well with ONE MILLION MEN and letting the soldiers stay on in Iraq.

A million men would have completely sealed the borders and saved many of our soldiers’ lives.

The Iraqi soldiers getting paid would have dealt with the insurrections in a way only the Iraqis could.

200k isn’t NEARLY enough to occupy a country when the borders have enemies at every turn.

..........I believe I have read that there is no statute of limitations on treason (re Bush).

I’m not advocating it at this point. But, this report looks really bad for him and seems to effectively accuse him of treason. Several people that helped John Wilkes Booth escape were hanged, as I recall. Indeed, one was a woman.

“Trump did the republican party a big favor by knocking down the Bushes”

Trump has done this nation a big favor if he does nothing else, hes outed the NWO globalist bushes, evil obama sycophant romney, countless supposed conservative pundits and groups and even a number of establishment religious persons, of which I will never again in my lifetime bend an ear toward or support any of them,

Its a clear choice between those who believe we’re a separate and distinct nation of laws with a constitutional republic guaranteeing unyielding freedoms to its citizens,

And those that think we’re held back by our outmoded constitution toward serving the needs as a globalist tool to empower and enrich the lawless elite over the masses of humanity.

The Constitution does stand in their way, they know it well but now they’ve had a new trick with Obama and to be continued with an installed Hillary as President, just ignore it, to be lawless, the managed MSM knows how to suppress any concern or voiced opposition,

We have been saying that for years. “WE” being my wife, and myself in our house anxiously discussing today’s political affairs such as they are.
