Al Gore Event Funded by Bin Laden's Family
The Saudi Arabia seminar that was addressed by former Vice President Al Gore over the weekend in a speech that criticized the U.S. for being too tough on Arabs was sponsored, in part, by Osama bin Laden's family.
On Saturday, the state-run Saudi news outlet Arab News reported that the Jeddah Economic Forum, where Gore spoke, was funded by "Saudi Arabian Airlines, the Saudi Binladin Group, Gulf One Investment Bank, Saudi Basic Industries Corp." and an array of other big companies with ties to the Middle East.
The Saudi BinLadin Group - which is Saudi Arabia's largest construction company - is run by Osama bin Laden's brothers and cousins. Jeddah, the site of the forum attended by Gore, is Osama bin Laden's hometown.
Although family members claim they've disowned bin Laden, his mother told reporters after the 9/11 attacks that she received advanced warning from him that something big was about to happen.
A wealthy bin Laden niece also reportedly abandoned her lower Manhattan apartment three weeks before the 9/11 attacks.
The BinLadin Group's longtime involvement in the Jeddah forum has been widely reported in the Mideast and European press.
In January 2002, ex-President Clinton addressed the JEF, which paid him $267,000 for his speech. According to London's Financial Times:
"The conference was dominated by the Saudis' desire to overcome the pressures of September 11 and strengthen U.S.-Saudi ties . . . The BinLadin Group, one of the forum's backers, has been battered by its association with Osama."

Does that hamper his election efforts in 2008 - or enhance them?
Let's sue him for endangering our lives and inciting violence against us as Americans.

In the mid-1990's Vice-President GORE bullied the U.S. Coast Guard & Port of Long Beach into illegally receiving Russian Rockets on American Soil...

Had anyone emailed this to Michael Moore yet?
Al Gorezeera
Phenomenal that Xtoons handlers let him do something to political brain dead as this.
That's strange. Alan Colmes didn't mention this in his huffy defense of algore.
I like that ..He's such a traitorous prick...
There's a joke about the a "lady of the evening" and determining the price...Al Gore Your a treasonous backstabbing MF who doesn't deserve to share the same air on the planet as any patriot. I will take great pride the day I can p!ss on your headstone Al. I say anything more I'll be be banned. Rot in h3ll Al.
I didn't realize that either, Txsleuth. The Clinton's must truly be a protected class or something.
Why wasn't it made a big deal of? And whatever possessed Clinton to do it? Well, the money, of course. But still - that takes brass ahem to do that.
Where's the squirt bottle?
Again, how many chads were we away from this bonafide psychopath being in the White House? Excuse me while I stop my hhaannnds f-f-from s-s-shaking.
Particularly if big Al uses his "gun"
There is a big difference in investments made with the BinLadin Company made back in the 90's....
Than taking money from them 4 MONTHS..on a PERSONAL basis, not a business investment!!!
apples/oranges...IMHO
