Saudi Arabia to Sell Billions in U.S. Assets if 9/11 Bill Passes

[5.56NATO]

The Saudi Arabian government has threatened to sell of hundreds of billions of dollars' worth of American assets should the U.S. Congress pass a bill that could hold the kingdom responsible for any role in the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks, the New York Times reported on Friday.

The newspaper reported that Saudi foreign minister Adel al-Jubeir told U.S. lawmakers last month that "Saudi Arabia would be forced to sell up to $750 billion in Treasury securities and other assets in the United States before they could be in danger of being frozen by American courts."

Hmmm. 15 out of 19 911 asshats were Saudis, I wonder if Saudi Arabia has something to hide? Also why invade Astan and Iraq whan Saudi Arabia was the attacker? Also, a selloff of 750B in t bills would cause a stir in the markets for sure. However, everyone else who holds t bills (Russia, Japan, some other countries have vast t bill stashes, China seems to have sold off much of theirs) will be pissed at the Saudis.

Hasn't Saudi Arabia invested millions of dollars, in bribe money, to Hitlery?

Saudi Arabia exports it's homemade crazies. They finance terrorist training camps called mosques all over the world.

Maybe so, but it was Bush who refused to let the FBI question Saudis about their role in 9/11.

[coppertales]

So what if they sell.

[Altarboy]

Supposedly it can start a chain reaction that crashes our economy. So what. Better now than later. But it will never happen. The apologist in chief will kiss their ass and stop them from dropping our assets.

Nothing says "GUILTY" like threatening blackmail to ensure silence.

The thing is: who the hell would buy these assets knowing they are probably worthless?

[Helen Keller]

even Bernie said the saudi's are shitbags.

[Altarboy]

And Drudge is reporting that Obama is ready to put the kabash on the Saudi 911 bill.

Not surprising. He'd rather help out his Muslim brothers rather than help the US.

Given a choice between siding with Muslims or Americans, he'll side with Muslims every time.

[Helen Keller]

bush woulda swept this under the rug and you never would have heard of it.

My thoughts exactly these fuckers we in on it and we knew from day 1, yet we treat them like they are our allies

[rshaneck2002]

Ever thought about the possible idea of BHO setting up a game of stepping all over the Saudi's at our expense and helping Iran? Backdoor BS may be at play here. Let's see? Is Indonesia Sunni or Shia or both. After all., it's where he spent his young informative years. If they dump their U.S. assets Wall St will be puking for a month. The flip flopping of our so-called allies in the ME is becoming somewhat confusing to say the least and i ask why is this? Is it intentional? Seems to me to be so. And why now, 15 yrs after the fact? Makes no sense at all. What i do know is Iran is now on a fast track for their Nuke, daily.

I think the past record will show that whatever choice harms America most, 0bama will make that choice.

Saudi officials were 'supporting' 9/11 hijackers, commission member says
“There was an awful lot of participation by Saudi individuals in supporting the hijackers, and some of those people worked in the Saudi government,” Lehman said in an interview, suggesting that the commission may have made a mistake by not stating that explicitly in its final report. “Our report should never have been read as an exoneration of Saudi Arabia.”

Makes you wonder if the whole thing was set up with a little help from the New World Order fucks in our government (the Bush clan and their ilk)

The NWO boys are using islam to help bring down western civilization, it's a lot easier to control a bunch of religious zealots than to rein in folks who were raised on a belief in individual freedom an liberty

There's a letter allegedly penned by Albert Pike that says the final war will be between political zionism and islam.

""The Third World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences caused by the "agentur" of the "Illuminati" between the political Zionists and the leaders of Islamic World. The war must be conducted in such a way that Islam (the Moslem Arabic World) and political Zionism (the State of Israel) mutually destroy each other. Meanwhile the other nations, once more divided on this issue will be constrained to fight to the point of complete physical, moral, spiritual and economical exhaustion…We shall unleash the Nihilists and the atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will from that moment be without compass or direction, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view. This manifestation will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time." 4"

So you might be on to something.
