Biden has asked permission of the people of the 9/11 Memorial to visit…..it will be a typical speech and photo op that could well make it into some re-election video…..now the people have responded…..
President Biden has been informed that he won’t be welcome at events marking the 20th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks unless he declassifies documents that could tie Saudi Arabian leaders to the terrorism. More than 1,800 relatives of victims, first responders, and attack survivors have signed onto the demand, NBC reports. “We cannot in good faith, and with veneration to those lost, sick, and injured, welcome the president to our hallowed grounds until he fulfills his commitment,” their statement says. The group maintains that Biden promised as a presidential candidate to release information but has since fallen silent on the issue and been unresponsive to its requests. The White House said Friday that staffers have met with members of the group. “Our hearts are with the families who lost loved ones on 9/11,” a spokesperson said.
The 9/11 Commission did not find evidence that Saudi leaders were involved in the attack, though its report called Saudi Arabia a “problematic ally.” But since the commission ended its work in 2004, the statement says, “much investigative evidence has been uncovered implicating Saudi government officials in supporting the attacks.” The commission did find that Saudi nationals funded al-Qaeda, per NBC. The Saudi government has denied involvement; 15 of the 19 Sept. 11 terrorists were Saudis. Some members of the group believe that Saudi leaders knew the attack, which killed about 2,500 people, was planned but didn’t try to stop it. Saudi Arabia, which did not issue a comment immediately Friday, faces lawsuits for billions of dollars from victims’ families, per the Guardian. Presidents George W. Bush, Barack Obama, and Donald Trump also would not declassify the records.
Bully for them!
It is high time the the US STOP caudling the murderous regimes like Saudi Arabia and Israel.
I say screw Biden until he releases those documents regardless what they say.
I Read, I Write, You Know

In Saner Thought 
I still think 9/11 was a ‘false flag’ collusion between the Saudis and the Bush administration backed by the military to fabricate a reason to attack (a completely innocent) Saddam, and then expand the war into Afghanistan and Syria. If any ‘secrets’ are revealed, they might potentially open a Pandora’s Box, but I am highly unlikely to believe anything ‘official’ I read about that fateful day.
Best wishes, Pete.
I am sick of us protecting the Saudis and Israelis….I say screw them and let the info flow. chuq
Have you been following that CNN series “Jerusalem”. chuq? An outstanding history. This last episode covered the period where the WW1 Allies created the Arabs states and how Britain (Lawrence of Arabia) was at the forefront. I had absolutely no idea the WW1 Germans occupied Jerusalem for a period of time. Interesting stuff.
No I have not…have been busy helping Sue…..I will try and catch up as soon as I can….thanx for the heads-up chuq
The information should be released.
Every detail should be made public ans now chuq
Ever feel you are in one of those disaster films where one group of survivors decides to go off on their own and you know they made a bad choice?
That is an excellent way of looking…..a slow moving disaster film…..but not as boring chuq

Yes, every lost life counts. Democratic societies can no longer have lunch with dictators and criminal subjects. xx Michael
AS long as there is profit…dictators are still on the guest list. chuq
Incidentally, it would be inconceivable in Germany that a president would be rejected, this way. He would claim this for himself, bring a few thousand euros in tax money, and everyone would be happy. 😉 xx Michael
