*Clinton, Bush Implicated in Covering Up Saudi Terror in U.S.* The 28 pages of the recently-declassified report on the September 11, 2001 terrorist attack not only implicated the Saudi government and its network on U.S. soil <http://www.clarionproject.org/news/saudi-royal-family-gov%E2%80%99t-implicated-released-911-docs>, it implicates the Clinton and Bush Administrations in covering up that network and stopping the FBI from protecting America from it.
Page 11 <http://www.documentcloud.org/documents/2994063-911-Report-28pages.html#document/p1> states: “Prior to September 11th, the FBI apparently did not focus investigative [censored]…Saudi nationals in the United States due to Saudi Arabia’s status as an American ‘ally.’…A representative of the FBI’s [censored] testified in closed hearings that, prior to September 11th, the FBI received ‘no reporting from any member of the Intelligence Community’ that there is a [censored] presence in the United States.” The censoring of the documents leaves us to wonder what specific terror-related presence the documents are referring to, but it is *very* clear that it is a network linked to the Saudi government and insufficient investigative resources were allotted for it because of those linkages. Repeat: A *terrorist network threatening Americans* was “apparently” not properly addressed because it wasn’t worth offending the government of Saudi Arabia, even though the documents say the Saudi government was, as one veteran FBI agent was quoted as saying, “useless and obstructionist” on counter-terrorism. The scandalous revelations could impact the presidential campaign because the Clinton Administration had eight years to address this Saudi network in America. The Bush Administration was in office for only 9 months, but cannot be absolved of blame. The files do not indicate that any change in direction was ordered before the attacks and it chose to classify the pages exposing the Saudis in the 2002 report. The Bush Administration also opted not to blacklist two terror-tied organizations with strong Saudi ties <http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2016/06/14/after-911-saudis-had-huma-abedin-connected-group-removed-from-terror-list/>: Muslim World League and International Islamic Relief Organization. The former also has strong links to Huma Abedin and her family, one of the closest advisers to Hillary Clinton. Perhaps that decision has something to do with the Saudi ambassador to the U.S. at the time, Prince Bandar bin Sultan, who was so close to the Bush family that he was nicknamed “Bandar Bush.” It turns out “Bandar Bush” and his wife were up to their ears in terrorist activity. This includes the FBI finding copies of checks from February 1999 to May 2002 showing payments of $74,000 from his wife to the wife of one of the Saudi intelligence officers linked to the 9/11 hijackers for “nursing services.” As you probably assumed, the FBI found no evidence that these services were actually rendered. An unlisted phone number to the Colorado-based company that handled the affairs of “Bandar Bush” was found in the possession of Abu Zubaydah, one of the most senior Al-Qaeda leaders at the time. The documents contain much more than that to show that this “moderate” was intricately involved in the Saudi-backed jihadist network. Documents obtained by the *Clarion Project* show that President Bush was actually scheduled to meet with <http://www.clarionproject.org/analysis/bush-was-meet-muslim-brotherhood-affiliates-911> representatives from the Saudi-linked Muslim Brotherhood <http://www.clarionproject.org/glossary/muslim-brotherhood/> network on the very day of the attacks, September 11, 2001. This was the fruition of the Republican Party and Bush presidential campaign’s embrace of Islamists <http://www.clarionproject.org/analysis/grover-norquist-co-build-islamist-influence-gop>, many of whom belonged to the Saudi-backed Brotherhood network. The relationship continued after the 9/11 attacks, but frayed as some of those same Islamists faced investigations and prosecutions. The Saudi regime is known as one of the most prolific influence-peddlers. Former CIA case officer Robert Baer, wrote in his book *Sleeping with the Devil: How Washington Sold its Soul for Saudi Crude:* *“Saudi money also seeped into the bureaucracy. Any Washington bureaucrat with a room-temperature IQ knows that if he stays on the right side of the kingdom, one way or another, he’ll be able to finagle his way to feed at the Saudi trough. A consulting contract with Aramco, a chair at American University, a job with Lockheed—it doesn’t matter.* *There’s hardly a living former assistant secretary of state for the Near East, CIA director, White House staffer, or member of Congress who hasn’t ended up on the Saudi payroll in one way or another, or so it sometimes seems. With this kind of money waiting out there, of course Washington’s bureaucrats don’t have the backbone to take on Saudi Arabia.”* A search of the Foreign Agents Registration Act website <https://www.fara.gov/quick-search.html> shows 14 active foreign agents of Saudi Arabia, including the Podesta Group. It is led by a major Democratic Party financier who is the brother of Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign manager. The group is paid $140,00 per month by the Saudis. <http://www.breitbart.com/2016-presidential-race/2016/04/21/brother-hillarys-campaign-chief-john-podesta-gets-140k-per-month-lobby-saudis/> In his Farewell Address <http://avalon.law.yale.edu/18th_century/washing.asp>, President George Washington repeatedly urged Americans to be on guard against this type of activity, saying “foreign influence is one of the most baneful foes of republican government.” The “spirit of party,” Washington warned, “opens the door to foreign influence and corruption, which finds a facilitated access to the government itself through the channels of party passions. Thus the policy and the will of one country are subjected to the policy and will of another.” Every American should be reminded of his words in light of the newly-released documents. *[image: Description: http://www.clarionproject.org/sites/all/sites/default/files/images/Ryan-Mauro-Tagline-NEWEST%282%29.jpg]**Ryan Mauro is ClarionProject.org <http://www.clarionproject.org/>’s national security analyst, a fellow with Clarion Project and an adjunct professor of homeland security.
