"While in the United States, some of the September 11 hijackers were in contact with, and received support or assistance from, individuals who may be connected to the Saudi government," it states." Is it stated what exactly is questionable about their affiliation? I don't think that there is a middle ground here. Either they have ties to government operations or they don't. Very suspicious with the timing of this release as well. Great way to try and bury it with current events. This just reeks of political agenda.

> I don't think that there is a middle ground here. Either they have ties to government operations or they don't. I haven't read the pages yet, but it's not at all hard to imagine a grey area or two. Imagine if we were talking about a radical Christian terrorist who'd received material assistance from a church known to be attended and funded by a senior Government minister. Is there a direct connection between the minister and the church support of the terrorist? Even if true, was he acting in his capacity as a private individual, or with the blessing of the Government? And even then, with official blessing, or maybe just that of the intelligence or military sections?
