US President Joe Biden has directed the declassification of certain documents related to the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, a supportive gesture to victims' families who have long sought the records in hopes of implicating the Saudi government.
The order, coming little more than a week before the 20th anniversary of the attacks, is a significant moment in a years-long tussle between the government and the families over what classified information about the run-up to the attacks could be made public.
That conflict was on display last month when many relatives, survivors and emergency workers came out against Mr Biden's participation in 9/11 memorial events if the documents remained classified.
Mr Biden said he was making good on a campaign commitment by ordering the declassification review and pledged that his administration "will continue to engage respectfully with members of this community".

I guess the Saudi’s didn’t pony up the required cash...
Wasn’t this same story posted a couple days ago? Did Joke™️ forget again? 🤣
Team Obama will never let that happen.
Turns out, Trump was colluding with the Saudis ...
Note: it’s a ‘review’
Well seeing as like 16 of the 19 jackers were Saudi citizens, I’d say there is a great likelihood, Saudi’s were involved.
You mean to say the Saudi‘s may have been involved in 9/11?
I’m shocked. Shocked I tell you. Just because all the hijackers were from Saudi Arabia wouldn’t mean anything, now would it?
I hope he does.
Somehow, I do not believe this is about 911.
It is a distraction, so the democrats can steal national elections by passing the infrastructure bill while everyone talks about 911...
Or worse!
We all know it was the Saudis. Nineteen of them were involved. The pilots took flying lessons right here in the USA.
Yup. That is why I never understood the Iraq / Afghanistan wars.
Bill Clinton’s boy Georgie at ABC News:
Oh my god have you see Biden’s poll numbers? Hurry we got to find some way to change the subject...
Biden has to gotta do what he needs to gotta do.
Namely, he needs to get the Afghan debacle out of the news.
Joe is absolutely obsessed with being the center of attention on 9-11
Posing as a hero who ‘ended the war”
Wait for it
Yes but they (families) need these documents to sue I think.
Doubt they will ever surface.
Well this could get interesting as LEZ Cheney and her fellow never Trumpers go it alone defending the Bush/Cheney doctrine. Pass the popcorn
Bush was in bed with the Saudi‘s. When you look at the picture of him lip locking the Saudi prince, you know there was no way we were going to be at odds with Saudi Arabia. Iraq and Afghanistan were just handy alternatives.
Saudi citizens does not mean the gov. was behind the attack.
