Top secret "28 pages" may hold clues about Saudi support for 9/11 hijackers

[SlyPokerDog]

Former Senator Bob Graham and others urge the Obama administration to declassify redacted pages of a report that holds 9/11 secrets

Current and former members of Congress, U.S. officials, 9/11 Commissioners and the families of the attack's victims want 28 top-secret pages of a congressional report released. Bob Graham, the former Florida governor, Democratic U.S. Senator and onetime chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, says the key section of a top secret report he helped author should be declassified to shed light on possible Saudi support for some of the 9/11 hijackers. Graham was co-chair of Congress' bipartisan "Joint Inquiry" into intelligence failures surrounding the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, that issued the report in 2003. Graham speaks to Steve Kroft for 60 Minutes report to be broadcast Sunday, April 10 at 7 p.m. ET/PT

Graham and his Joint Inquiry co-chair in the House, former Representative Porter Goss (R-FL) -- who went on to be director of the CIA -- say the 28 pages were excised from their report by the Bush Administration in the interest of national security. Graham wouldn't discuss the classified contents, but says the 28 pages outline a network of people he believes supported hijackers in the U.S. He tells Kroft he believes the hijackers were "substantially" supported by Saudi Arabia. Asked if the support was from government, rich people or charities, the former senator replies, "all of the above."

The murderers were almost all Saudis. Of course they were behind it, at least financially.

While they got some small plane training in the USA they didn't get commercial jet flight training here. There are commercial jet flight simulators in Saudi Arabia, I've always felt some of the hijackers received some instruction there.

The Basics; Why Arab Men Hold Hands
By HASSAN M. FATTAH
Published: May 1, 2005

Americans may raise an eyebrow at men holding hands, but in the Arab world, affection among men is common, and without sexual connotation.
When President Bush and Crown Prince Abdullah of Saudi Arabia met in Crawford, Tex., last week, they did something very un-Texan: they walked hand in hand.

Americans may raise an eyebrow at men holding hands, but in the Arab world, affection among men is common, and without sexual connotation.

''Holding hands is the warmest expression of affection between men,'' said Samir Khalaf, a sociology professor at American University of Beirut in Lebanon. ''It's a sign of solidarity and kinship.''

In fact, if a man chooses not to touch another in a greeting, it can be interpreted as a sign of distance or disdain.


Thanks Obama and Hillary, for the utter mess in which you left half the world.

Here's Hillary's foreign policy:

After she resigned, here's Obama's:

That said, clearly the Saudis had much to do with 9/11. The hijackers were all Saudis. So was Bin Laden, originally.
