In the US, part of the report on the terrorist attacks of 9 September 2001 has been declassified. The report notes that links to official Saudi sites have failed to be independently confirmed, which the Saudis and, oddly, CTK and the parrots in our media interpret as REJECTING SA's involvement in these terrorist attacks. Yet the report notes that 15 of the 19 terrorists were Saudi and that some of them had ties to senior Saudi government officials, including money transfers to terrorists and a meeting between a Saudi ministry employee and two terrorists in a Virginia hotel in September 2001. It further notes that there was a meeting between a Saudi intelligence officer and two terrorists in San Diego shortly after their arrival in California. Two other terrorists attempted to enter the cabin of a flight from Phoenix to Washington in 1999 en route to a party at the Saudi Embassy. Other links come from material found in Pakistan from Saudi terrorists. These had in their possession the phone numbers of the American company that provided security for the residence of the Saudi prince, then ambassador to Washington.
The report also notes that the Saudi government and a number of their agencies have been infiltrated by individuals associated with or sympathetic to the Al-Qaeda terrorist network.
The rest is interpretation by the parties, ranging from 'confirmed concerns' to 'refuted allegations'.
