It's no secret that members of the Saudi royal family have provided extensive financial support to al Qaeda. But now, as Eric Lichtblau of the New York Times reports, thousands of pages of previously undisclosed documents provide a detailed look at this disgusting phenomenon.

Well well, and they said GW was in bed with the Saudi’s.
0sama sides with the Saudis too.
There was an allegation that he received campaign funds from these same sources. Strikes me as a violation of conduct, unethical behavior, violation of trust and breach of the presidents office. All in all treasonous behavior towards the American people! The bugger should be impeached for acting contrary to the needs of America!
Siding with the enemy????
Sorry, they are his friends!
And this is simply a continuation of a Bush policy.
I’m waiting on Michael Moore to condemn Obama. Wonder how long I’ll have to wait.
Hell frozen over yet?
And they were right. How’s that for bipartisanship!
Snippets: In the immediate aftermath of the Sept. 11 attacks while U.S. airspace was restricted, planes sanctioned by the Bush administration flew about the country gathering some 140 high-ranking Saudi Arabians – including several relatives of al-Qaida chief Osama bin Laden – who were then spirited out of the country within a week of the terror, according to a senior official.
While the Saudis have long denied involvement in the massacre that claimed the lives of some 3,000 people, 15 of the 19 hijackers came from the kingdom.
According to Clarke, top White House officials personally approved the repatriation plan, which is thought to have been organized by Saudi ambassador to the United States Prince Bandar bin Sultan. Vanity Fair reports Prince Bandar met with President George W. Bush on Sept. 13, 2001, but it is not known whether the plan was discussed.
WorldNetDaily has reported the Saudi envoy donated millions of dollars to bin Laden's favorite charity, the International Islamic Relief Organization, or IIRO. And tens of thousands of dollars in donations made by Princess Haifa bint Faisal, the daughter of the late King Faisal and wife of Bandar, wound up in the hands of two al-Qaida operatives who later became 9-11 hijackers.
The 0 voters will be disturbed to hear this.
Oh wait, it’s the 0 we’re talking about.
He thinks GWB’s ideas might have been right afterall and
the little Marxist ankle nippers lap it up like the good
little Kool-Aid drinkers they are.
What I wouldn’t give to see him lose in 3 years. On a related note the media disgusts me.
With an unprecedented and unaudited $700M campaign fund, was some of that of Saudi origin? (/rhetorical)
Gee, I wonder. (sarc)
Oh, yeah. The non-bow bow....
No surprise here, aside form selling his soul to so many people to become the figurehead phony TOTUS he is the mid east leaders personal bitc*.
