Report probes Saudi links of San Diego's 9/11 hijackers
2016-09-12
Rolled over from yesterday because it was published late in the day.

#5  Look at the Somali colony in SD and the concentrated living area they have established. Ask the Sheriff, former FBI SAC for that area. He knows all about it.

#4  The Saudis were lying with, and financing snakes...still are. The motive unknown...arrogant wahhabbi-ism or self-preservation the most likely candidates.

I really appreciate this newspaper investigating the links...

Many questions arise - the three that first come to mind are:

1. When will the 9/11 trial finally start? Perhaps all that classified information they are concerned about in that trial is classified due to the fact that is "political" and not capability related.

2. Why is no one else concerned about the fact that Saudi government money financed the 9/11 hi-jackers prior to the attack and when will the KSA be punished?

3. Why is Obama protecting the house of Saud with a veto?

#3  Don't forget about the DOJ's "Gorelick Directive," that placed additional restrictions on an existing law about intel sharing between IC and LE.

#2  The various 9/11 reports that have come out over the years have had one overwhelming conclusion: had the CIA communicated what it knew to the FBI in a timely fashion, the terrorists might have been stopped.

A scenario which has been repeated time and time again since 9/11. Projects generally involve sources. Sources are seldom shared.

#1  Actually, San Diego was an Islamist radical outpost in the decade leading to 9/11. Many Islamist activists (from CAIR, Holy Land Foundation, MSA, etc.,) operated from the city. The history is as interesting as the early AQ penetration of New York City, but a book has yet to be written on the subject.
