The post 9/11 Saudi flights

Judicial Watch announced today, "A U.S. district court judge has ordered the FBI to correct disclosures regarding the US government's evacuation of Saudi royals and bin Laden family members after the September 11 attacks in 2001." Apparently, the redactions were overbroad.

No conspiracy, but it would be interesting to know the level of contacts and favors that enabled Saudi family members to evacuate when every other plane in the country was grounded.

  • If you're looking for other Saudi outrages, there's a big stink going on in Britain where a criminal slush fund investigation is being stymied by the Saudis. Last couple of days.

    My memory is that it was being funded by corporations like BAE looking for Saudi sales, and the the Saudi royal family was using it for luxury life when they came through.

    Sorry I don't have a handy link. Saw it on BBC.
