Another brother of Bin Laden who lives in Central Florida was also spirited out of the country with his family in the immediate days after 9/11. It was covered extensively here on the local news. I believe he is a large property holder in the Orlando area.

WAMY recruited Padilla, and WAMY is reported to be a "talent spotting" arm of Al Qaeda.

Right. This was said on FoxNews by John Loftus.

I am blaming the FBI... not GWBush.

Radical Islam is an insane death cult, and "moderate" Islam is its Trojan Horse in the West.

��5{�������� Those who disliked the Saudis earlier often did so for the wrong reasons, because they were rich oilmen and not because they were Islamic fanatics.

The Saudi "royals;" who, [As anyone who has ever partied with them or, as have many scores of my professional colleagues and I, flown them about the globe in their fleets of private and chartered jets] almost to a man, live lives of unimaginable debauchery, licentiousness and abandon; are much more loathesome, fearsome and insidiously dangerous than those -- including islam's most murderous -- they employ to their Evil bidding.

For the Saudi "royals" are hypocrites!

And to the extent we ignore Our Nation's "leaders" panderings to them -- we are their enablers and financiers.

RADICAL ISLAM IS THE BEAST!
"moderate" ISLAM is its TROJAN HORSE!

Agree with all you wrote; BUT - I hope he understands that he may have to put his country before this old friendship.

He may have to put his country before this old friendship ?

No, he must put his country first.

Yes, the performance at Crawford Ranch was shameful. On this issue, Bush and I part company.

Prince Abdullah should never have been invited to a prestigious place like the Bush Ranch.

Abdullah is akin to Abbadon, the Beast from the Abyss.

Continuing to loathe the Saudis....

"Was this on paper? by telephone? Who are these nameless named by the nameless?"

Moreover, these nameless are telling the nameless to "back off" on files that had been closed for five years.

But the FBI files were closed in 1996...High-placed intelligence sources in Washington told the Guardian this week: "There were always constraints on investigating the Saudis".

They said the restrictions became worse after the Bush administration took over this year.

That Bush administration! Putting "restrictions" on those files, even after the Clinton administration had closed them. Can't be too careful, y'know...

Do I hear the rustle of tinfoil...???
