I read in a magazine in the nineties that the Saudi knew there was a plan to destroy the
trade center, back before the bombing that failed occured. The writer said his Saudi friend
said he should stay away as it was targeted. Just generally speaking, not howw it was
to be done.
I also read that the Saudi's pay out millions in blackmail to keep terrorist from causing
them troubles. Or have their leaders over thrown.
I also read that generally when Saudi big shots leave their country they apparently
leave their strict religious beliefs behind too.. At least in private that is. The news
said some of the terrorists that flew the planes into the trade center had been
seeing women of the night and gambling. Apparently they were getting a little
bored while learning how to fly a jet liner into a building.
The best thing the world could do would be to move away from using
oil as a energy source. Then the middle east would no loinger have
any power over the world economy. They and we would be the better
for it.
