The outgoing Clinton Administration, tried to warn them, but Bush had that insufferable snotty attitude, of being a know-it-all, and did the opposite. The new administration was too busy insinuating that the white house was left filthy and even had excrement left in office desk drawers.(per Bill Clinton's memoir)

Ever read House of Bush, House of Saud? It was a pre 9/11 book. Pretty good, too.

There's a reason the British tried to sue Saudi Arabia for what happened on 9/11. There were people in the royal family sending money to the highjackers, ffs.

I wonder if Americans could stick their heads any deeper into the sand.
