So given the Saudi's fund the radical Muslim madrassas, the Saudi's would not appreciate Islam being mentioned in the 9/11 commission recordings. imo

All foreign holdings in U.S debt account for 34%. The largest holder of debt is the U.S. government's own accounts like the Social Security Trust Fund and the Federal Reserve (40%).

And they are #13 owner of US debt.
Given both of their positions, it is fair to say they own us.
