Bush, Obama and the court swooned for Saudi Money

U.S. relations with the Saudi royal family trumped the importance of the 3,000
murders on Sept. 11, 2001. That was the opinion of the U.S. State Department
during the Bush years.

The Bush administration made the path as rocky as possible for the families
who sued the Saudis. The families’ lawsuit showed how the Saudis financed the
lunatics who pulled off a mass murder on American soil in September 2001.

Barack Obama has followed that same Bush agenda.

But it took an intellectually lightweight U.S. Supreme Court to really send
the important message to the Saudi royal family. That message: "We love
your oil and need your money."

So even with the Supreme Court, it was all about our love affair with the Saudis
when the court ruled that the families of 9/11 victims were not permitted to
sue the royal family.

Even the highest court in the land could not get past the fact that the Saudis
control about 25 percent of the world’s oil reserves; the legend that the court
is supposed to be blind to politics is once more exposed as a fraud. The justices
knew that America owes the Saudi royal family billions, and that by some estimates
that family controls 8 to 10 percent of our entire economy.

In front of the Supreme Court, the Obama lawyers argued the same thing that
the Bush lawyers argued. In a distilled form, the argument was simple: America
will make the Saudis mad if we allow the families of 3,000 murdered Americans
to disclose the truth about the Saudis’ role in the 9/11 horror.

Let me disclose that Ron Motley, the lawyer who has fought so hard on behalf
of the 9/11 families, is a long-time friend. He may be one of the most talented
claimants’ lawyers alive today.

The case that Motley built against the Saudi royal family is powerful. When
the new, extreme conservative majority of the Supreme Court declared that the
Saudis were immune from charges of mass murder, that court had been presented
with hundreds of documents that mapped out the flow of money from the Saudi
royal family to al-Qaida and dozens of other fanatic groups that have declared
war against America.

There was nothing vague about documents that showed how the Saudis pumped millions
of dollars into bogus charities so that those millions could end up in the hands
of Arab lunatics like the 17 Arab nationals who murdered 3,000 Americans.

The lawsuit that the 9/11 families initiated alleged that they would show specifically
how Saudi "charity money" helped fund these 17 Arab criminals while
those criminals planned and executed their mass murder of Americans.

This political high court ruling should give us a flashback memory of George
Bush walking around in practically a lovers’ embrace with Arab kings and princes.

Unfortunately, Obama is still locked in that same embrace. It is a lovers’
embrace held together by oil and money. But this latest Supreme Court ruling
ends any chance that the true story will ever be told about that lovers’ relationship
between the Saudis and the United States.

It is a sad story. Not a love story, but a story about a powerful Arab king
and his high-priced paramour.

Since 2004, 911Truth.Org has educated the public about the suppressed realities of the September 11 attacks.

We worked with the 9/11 Families to pressure the Bush administration to convene an investigation into the deadliest attacks on US soil since Pearl Harbor. We attended many of the commission hearings and questioned commissioners and bird-dogged elected officials to get answers to the Unanswered Questions that remain so to this day.

We reported the contradictions, lies and omissions on the public record. 911Truth.Org staff have given hundreds of interviews on radio and mainstream network TV.

We cover a wide range of 9/11-related issues in publishing academic papers, original research, and opinion pieces.
