Indeed, in a lawsuit filed in 2005 by the families of victims of those attacks, U.S. District Judge Richard Conway Casey dismissed Saudi government officials and a government sponsored “charity” (the High Commission) as defendants, arguing that the government’s support for Islamist “charities” financing al-Qaeda did not make it responsible for 9/11.
Now, that 2005 ruling has been reversed by the Appeals Court, which held that “the circumstances of this case are ‘extraordinary,’”, and sent the case back to the lower court “for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.”
The consequences of such a legal case should be staggering. What needs to be uncovered is not only who masterminded those attacks, which have served as a pretext for setting up a police state in the United States, but also all those who have deliberately and systematically covered up the crimes. That means, among others, the George W. Bush and Barack Obama, and their administrations. In fact, the Obama White House intervened to support the Saudi Arabia in 2009, by filing a brief in favor of continued sovereign immunity for the Kingdom.
Key to the cover-up are 28 pages of the 800 page report issued by the Congressional Joint Inquiry, which were immediately classified by President George W. Bush and have remained so under President Barack Obama. Those 28 pages deal by all accounts with Saudi financing and support for the hijackers.
On Dec. 3, Congressmen Walter Jones, a republican, and Stephen Lynch, a democrat, introduced a resolution calling for the release of those pages. Their initiative has been widely covered in the U.S. press, including in the widely circulated New York Post. Both Jones and Lynch are urging all of their colleagues to read those classified pages, which remain censured for the American public and the victims.
A key figure in the 9/11 attacks and in the terrorist networks since then, as we have reported, was Prince Bandar, at the time Saudi Ambassador to Washington and now head of Saudi intelligence.
As Helga Zepp-LaRouche wrote Dec. 20, if a U.S. court can determine that those 2001 attacks were not mainly orchestrated by “a bearded Osama bin Laden in the remote mountains of Afghanistan,” but by the Saudi government, that calls into question the entire “war on terror” in Afghanistan, followed by the bloodbath in Iraq, which are still ongoing.
In fact, Helga Zepp-LaRouche wrote, the war on terror has been a total failure and, contrary to Obama’s claim that Al Qaeda has been defeated, “the whole Near and Middle East region, reaching down to North and Central Africa, has become a breeding ground for Al Qaeda linked networks.”
Exposing this policy will also contribute in a fundamental way to stopping the current war drive against Russia and China.
