But Bush ordered the FBI in August 2001 to stop investigating Saudi's in the US who were helping AlQaeda and the hijacker pilots and Hamas. Some of these men were Bush campaign donars and business partners associated with Harken Energy and with Holy Land Foundation in Dallas.

What's the source for this information?

References to Bush's supposed "backing off" order to the FBI would be helpful. The notion that ties to the Holy Land Foundation were ignored, flies in the face of the Treasury Department's freezing of their funds as terrorist supporters.

Also, this article is written by Seymour Hersch, he also wrote of the "failed airborn assault" in the opening days in Afghanistan, with numerous American casualties. This report was discredited.

Nowhere in this article is any mention that under Clinton, the search for domestic terrorists ala McVeigh, were the "orders du jour" for the FBI. I can understand why upper management FBI ignored any middle eastern terrorist warnings. They were trained by Clinton's PC crowd to look for us common folk as the real enemies.
