Apparently we helped whisk some Saudi bigwigs out of the country right after 911. But that actually argues AGAINST Saudi complicity. Why would they be here and need protective evacuation if they knew it was coming?

Do not recall if they are ‘family’ to the Saudi Royals, but I do recall that family that left behind their cars and a home in Sarasota...was talked about for a while way back when...

Well, the thing about “Saudi bigwigs” is there are a whole lot of them. Just the Royal family alone is like 3000 cousins and nieces and nephews, etc, and they are all very factional.

So what one wing of “the Saudi government” might have aided/encouraged was probably not known to all the rest of them.

Because they felt that their money and a friendly US government concerned about keeping a steady supply of cheap oil would protect them. And they were right.
