Just two weeks before the 9/11 hijackers slammed into the Pentagon and World Trade Center, members of a Saudi family abruptly vacated their luxury home near Sarasota, leaving a brand new car in the driveway, a refrigerator full of food, fruit on the counter — and an open safe in a master bedroom.
In the weeks to follow, law enforcement agents not only discovered the home was visited by vehicles used by the hijackers, but phone calls were linked between the home and those who carried out the death flights — including leader Mohamed Atta — in discoveries never before revealed to the public.
Ten years after the deadliest attack of terrorism on U.S. soil, new information has emerged that shows the FBI found troubling ties between the hijackers and residents in the upscale community in southwest Florida, but the investigation wasn’t reported to Congress or mentioned in the 9/11 Commission Report.
Former U.S. Sen. Bob Graham, the Florida Democrat who co-chaired the congressional Joint Inquiry into the attacks, said he should have been told about the findings, saying it “opens the door to a new chapter of investigation as to the depth of the Saudi role in 9/11. ... No information relative to the named people in Sarasota was disclosed.”
The U.S. Justice Department, the lead agency that investigated the attacks, refused to comment, saying it will discuss only information already released.
The Saudi residents then living at the stylish home, Abdulazzi al-Hiijjii and his wife Anoud, could not be reached, nor could the then-owner of the house, Esam Ghazzawi, who is Anoud’s father. The house was sold in 2003, records show.

Sshhhh.... we are not supposed to upset the muzzies they might get mad at us.....
The fact of the matter is that certain well-connected people in the House of Saud were involved up to their eyeballs in the 9/11 plot.
As might the stoutest of Bush supporters...
AMERICANS FOR A MUSLIM FREE AMERICA.
WE LEARNED ALL WE NEED TO KNOW ABOUT ISLAM ON 9/11
Makes me wanna puke since we've all known from the get-go that one of Bush's key policies after 9/11 was to protect his Saudi pals at all costs.
The final 28-page section of the Inquiry’s report, which deals with “sources of foreign support for some of the Sept. 11 hijackers,” was entirely blanked out. It was kept secret from the public on the orders of former President George W. Bush and is still withheld to this day, Graham said.
This in spite of the fact that Graham and his Republican counterpart, U.S. Sen. Richard Shelby of Alabama, both concluded the release of the pages would not endanger national security.
The grounds for suppressing the material, Graham believes, were “protection of the Saudis from embarrassment, protection of the administration from political embarrassment … some of the unknowns, some of the secrets of 9/11.”
So, we have been chasing muzzies in all the wrong crap holes for ten years while the real culprits are known to us.
Please let me out of this mad house.
Have you ever read the book “Hatred’s Kingdom” by Dore Gold?
It’s about Saudi Arabia, the House of Saud and the way they try to spread their malignant strain of Wahhabi Islam.
I read it back in ‘03 and it was quite an eyeopener.
SA is not our friend. Bush’s friend maybe - but not America’s.
I have read gazillions of articles of all and every topic imagineable.
Pre-Free, I had thoughts and suspicions, but because I was a more than average worker, I worked long hours and was content (sort of) to raise a family and all the etcetera's.
ONE of my suspicions pre-free was that we will never know the true workings of politics because of its intracacies.
I explained all that to state ... FreeRepublic opened my understanding up to an affirmation of what I thought I thought and more.
I can't remember how many times I've read that such and such occured or was said, at such and such time ... that IF we had know that at that time, whatever had happened might not have.
This is just one more, and I'm beginning to believe there is no hope for America without a bloody revolution.
“a bloody revolution” is what they want. You have to out think them and then outmaneuver them as well.
How? Find terrorist finger prints on a stripper?
And THAT is from where the anthrax that killed the Inquirer reporter came from. The Saudi royals in S FLA.
Energy. America’s fuel.
ROP Crap? Public policy lie he used to control the people and his own crew.
Did he take a slow and deliberate action? YES Did he make us more safe? YES- Unlike the current president who has done the exact opposite , right down to making AlQaeda our ally in Libya.
well...if Anthony Summers says so...
It's no coincidence that all we have to do is generate our own energy get away from needing the Saudis and we can at least slow them down and we make no attempt whatsoever to do so and haven't for years.Smells to me.
Sounds like Saudi intelligence was involved in the 9/11 planning.
If this had been revealed at the time, the Bush Administration would have been compelled to respond militarily against “our friends” the Saudis.
So it was hushed up.
