Zubaydah: Pakistan and Saudi Arabia knew about 911 in advance
http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1101030908-480226,00.html

...Without charging any skulduggery (Posner told TIME they "may in fact be coincidences"), the author notes that these deaths occurred after cia officials passed along Zubaydah's accusations to Riyadh and Islamabad. Washington, reports Posner, was shocked when Zubaydah claimed that "9/11 changed nothing" about the clandestine marriage of terrorism and Saudi and Pakistani interests, "because both Prince Ahmed and Mir knew that an attack was scheduled for American soil on that day." They couldn't stop it or warn the U.S. in advance, Zubaydah said, because they didn't know what or where the attack would be. And they couldn't turn on bin Laden afterward because he could expose their prior knowledge. Both capitals swiftly assured Washington that "they had thoroughly investigated the claims and they were false and malicious." The Bush Administration, writes Posner, decided that "creating an international incident and straining relations with those regional allies when they were critical to the war in Afghanistan and the buildup for possible war with Iraq, was out of the question."... :eyes:

Dubya's (mis)administration still calls Pakistan and Saudi Arabia "Allies".

If there's another terrorist attack in the USA, the blame will lay on Dubya this time.

1. The US has been "interrogating" Zubaida's sons, 7 and 9, for months

I imagine that Zubaida has also confessed to killing JonBenet and crucifying Jesus.

5. Why are we in Iraq?
when there are far more dangerous countries working towards harming US interest?

Where are our priorities?

Dubya needs to answer these questions, and it is time for every Democrat to start ansking these questions.

6. Because it was a lot easier to take on Iraq both militarily and
rationally than Saudi Arabia.

4. I heard the part about...
...the secret funds, OBLs exit from Saudi, and the promise to leave the Saudis alone at a John Loftus presentation last summer.

Later,
JM

7. you take cia agent posner serious?
posner spent years trying to shore up the 'oswald the lone assasin' bull from the JFK murder.....saying again and again, supported by the mediawhores, his book 'last word' and final proof...but nobody believed that...
check out 'murder in dealey plaza' for last word on that lying jackass posner...
