‘Chilling’ memo details Saudi 9/11 link

May 15, 2016, PressTV

A US interrogation report detailing the questioning of Saudi diplomats is drawing fresh attention to the alleged role of Saudi Arabia in 9/11 terrorist attacks.

The report, quietly released by the American National Archives over the last 18 months and described by its writers as "chilling," has drawn little public scrutiny until now.



The newly-declassified documents are hoped to help resolve the lingering mystery about what is hidden in a confidential congressional report about ties between Saudi Arabia and the 9/11 attacks.

The files detail US investigators' trip to Saudi Arabia in 2004 and their face-to-face confrontation with some of the Saudis believed to have been linked to the 9/11 hijackers on the American soil.

A key witness in the investigation has been identified as 32-year-old Fahad al-Thumairy - a former Saudi diplomat who was believed to be a ringleader of a Saudi government spy network inside the US...snip

'Chilling' details about alleged Saudi involvement in 9/11 revealed in declassified documents

The newly-released material is said to largely resemble a top-secret report known as the '28 pages'

A series of declassified memos have revealed details of interviews - described by investigators as “chilling” - from the inquiry into alleged support of the 9/11 terrorist attacks by Saudi Arabian officials.

According to a former Commission staff member, the newly released material largely duplicates a top-secret report known as the '28 pages', which reportedly includes sensitive findings relating to allged Saudi involvement in 9/11...snip more:

During the 9/11 Commission's investigation, commission staff conducted over 1200 fact-finding interviews. The MFRs are summaries of these interviews, and are available in the National Archives Catalog.

Whenever anyone does some common sense math, some Tory cries "conspiracy theory."

We shipped the Tories out once. May be time for another housecleaning.

These are two threads I've started about so-called conspiracy theories. On both threads, especially the JPR thread, the replies were so much better than my OP.

My question is whether the Bush/GOP loving media will ever pursue the truth. Probably not....

Did you expect the bushes to admit their friends attacked our nation? The bushes were loyal to their campaign donors and fellow rich friends, even if they were evil, corrupt elites. So what they murdered a few thousand Americans? We have over 300 million people, a few thousand is a drop in the bucket and the twin towers were ready for demolition anyway. No one in W's circle got so much as a scratch.

Then we had a war over it. So, it was all good, for the bushes. The rest of you American citizens just don't count as much as the bushes rich friends. Then we covered it all up. WWI was started for less.

Hired the owner of one of the biggest lobbying firms in DC as her campaign chairman... They represent all sorts, including big pharma, weapons manufacturers and... SAUDI ARABIA. And of course as Sec of State she signed off on one of the biggest weapons deals to Saudi Arabia... With Boeing... Who is also represented by her campaign chairman's lobbying firm...


And of course Boeing and Saudi Arabia both have given millions to the Clinton Foundation.....

And of course Boeing is one of the biggest advertisers on MSNBC...

I totally shouldn't have forced her to be so aligned with Saudi Arabia. Really forcing her to hire the guy who owns their DC lobbying firm as her campaign chairman was the final straw. How could I have done that?

And then when I forced her to call selling 29b in weapons to them a 'top priority'... Well what was I thinking?!

Totally my bad.
