New York Times:

WASHINGTON -- Documents gathered by lawyers for the families of Sept. 11 victims provide new evidence of extensive financial support for Al Qaeda and other extremist groups by members of the Saudi royal family, but the material may never find its way into court because of legal and diplomatic obstacles.

Huffington Post should be pushing this story a lot harder. This story is a lot more important then Sanford...this should make the main headline for an entire day

The NYT _is_ the US MSM -- we can't believe a word they say. And we can't believe a word they didn't say -- For _eight_ years -- It's not like they 'missed' the story.

They drop kicked it so far down field that they could legitimately say 'What story? I see no story'. Well if you put your telescope to your blind eye ...

Try these guys - they have actual new - and actual stories - that the MSM will _never_ have - Information Clearing House -

Remember the 15 billion dollar in arms sale last year by Bush to the Saudis and then those weapons
found themselves facing our brave soldiers in Iraq? Ever wondered why a country like Saudi needs
those fantastic US Weapons? And Osama is the most hunted man but Saudi Royalty, right!!!!

Something else the Obama administration is trying to cover up.

Bush holding hands and smooching with Bandar, Obama bowing and scraping. Is there anything our ruling elite won't do for their ruling elite?

It is so obvious that they are connected.

What I don't understand is WTF was W. Bush over there holding hands with the royals for?

Not if they have been paying attention. There was information in the 9-11 Commission Report that one of the hijackers had been receiving money from a wife of a Saudi Diplomat. There was also the 19 pages that were redacted and pulled from the published report which we never got to see. And there was that rather troublesome relationship between Bush and the Saudis. Let's face it, war is good for oil prices--if you are selling. It was no doubt and always has been a marriage of convenience. And there is still that rather problematic intervention to allow bin Laden to escape from Tora Bora, as well as the out of the country passes for the other members of the bin Laden family after 9-11. Bush should be investigated for his ties to the bin Ladens and the Saudis. That would be a much better story than his use of torture, believe me. For anyone who has even glanced at the 2 books on Bush by Craig Ungar or "Family of Secrets" by Russ Baker, this is all old news. Too bad it only took the New York Times almost 8 years to get the story.

And I've always heard that Saudi royals are linked to the Bush family!

Wait a minute, now I am confused.............That means that: Saudis, Al Qaeda and Bushes are all related?!

You thought you knew the whole story; they just added a morsel, just a morsel; now, you think you know the whole story. And some think that perpetuating a cover up would be hard.

Yeah, the Saudi Royals are close to the Bush family. Who do you think would help them. This only helps supports the "inside job" theory.
