Congress' "28 pages" on Saudi ties to 9/11 released

Twenty-eight pages of a 2002 congressional report on the September 11, 2001 terror attacks -- a section that could shed light on any alleged Saudi ties to the terrorist attack -- were released Friday and posted to the House Intelligence Committee's website.

The newly declassified document, with light redactions, names people the hijackers associated with before they carried out the attacks, killing nearly 3,000 people in New York, Washington and on a plane that crashed in Pennsylvania. It identifies individuals who helped the hijackers get apartments, open bank accounts, attend local mosques and get flight lessons. Fifteen of the 19 hijackers were Saudi nationals and several were not fluent in English and had little experience living in the West.

I count 29 pages plus the addition title page, but, whatever.

Enough to piss a person off. Almost as much as Dow Chemical, or whatever they call themselves now, firing thousands of North American employees as they opened a mega processing facility in the kingdom.
