A 9/11 Conspirator in King Bush's Court?
A 9/11 Conspirator in King Bush's Court? - Huffington Post
While Cindy Sheehan was being dragged from the House gallery moments before President Bush delivered his State of the Union address for wearing a t-shirt honoring her son and the other 2,244 US soldiers killed in Iraq, Turki al-Faisal was settling into his seat inside the gallery. Faisal, a Saudi, is a man who has met Osama bin Laden and his lieutenants on at least five occasions, describing the al Qaeda leader as "quite a pleasant man." He met multiple times with Taliban leader Mullah Mohammed Omar.
Yet, unlike Sheehan, al-Faisal was a welcomed guest of President Bush on Tuesday night. He is also a man that the families of more than 600 victims of the 9/11 attacks believe was connected to their loved ones' deaths.
Al-Faisal is actually Prince Turki al-Faisal, a leading member of the Saudi royal family and the kingdom's current ambassador to the US. But the bulk of his career was spent at the helm of the feared Saudi intelligence services from 1977 to 2001. Last year, The New York Times pointed out that "he personally managed Riyadh's relations with Osama bin Laden and Mullah Muhammad Omar of the Taliban. Anyone else who had dealings with even a fraction of the notorious characters the prince has worked with over the years would never make it past a U.S. immigration counter, let alone to the most exclusive offices in Washington." Al-Faisal was also named in the $1 trillion lawsuit filed by hundreds of 9/11 victims' families, who accused him of funding bin Laden's network. Curiously, his tenure as head of Saudi intelligence came to an abrupt and unexpected end 10 days before the 9/11 attacks.

Bin Laden came to Afghanistan to represent Prince Turki in this endeavor...." - Link

Ok... listen up blimpy, and listen good. The reason I typed the word, "barf" was because that article made me sick to my stomach. Here are the reasons why because it seems that you can't fathom them on your own.
1. Cindy Sheehan, a woman who lost her son Casey in the Iraq War, a war based on lies, was dragged out of the State Of The Union Address because she was wearing a t-shirt with the number of dead soldiers on it.
That, in and of itself, is reason enough to get sick. So much for the Freedom Of Speech. And of all places no less.
2. Do you deny that Saudi Arabia funds "terrorist organizations"? Do you deny that there is information out there that says Saudi Arabia may have participated in the funding of 9/11? Do you deny the accusations brought forth by the family members?
How DARE they have that man in that room. It is a slap in the face to EVERYONE affected by the events of 9/11.
Now, with that in mind, let the fact that Cindy was dragged out of there, while he was allowed to stay, really sink in.
It's enough to make one "barf".
