They Were Only Following Orders...

EDDAH, 23 September 2005 — The Saudi High Commission for Relief was granted immunity yesterday from litigation in three lawsuits stemming from the Sept. 11 attacks on the United States.
US District Judge Richard Casey found that Interior Minister Prince Naif and Riyadh Governor Prince Salman, president of the High Commission, were not personally liable since they were acting as agents of the Saudi government.

The lawsuits had made baseless charges that the High Commission, which had played a big role in the reconstruction of Bosnia, and the princes had sponsored terror with Saudi funds under their direction.

It appears that the Saudis got away with it AGAIN. Although I voted for Bush, I now wonder about his troubling connections with the House of Saud.

It's time we develop and implement a energy source that will allow us to disconnect once and for all from this malignancy that holds us in energy thrall.
