Sen. Graham: Bush Blocked 9/11-Saudi Investigation

HeadlineSep 07, 2004

A new book by Senator Bob Graham charges that two of the Sept. 11 hijackers had a support network in the United States that included agents of the Saudi government, and that Bush administration and FBI blocked a congressional investigation into that relationship. Graham writes “It was as if the president’s loyalty lay more with Saudi Arabia than with America’s safety.” In his book, Intelligence Matters, Graham also reveals that Gen. Tommy Franks admitted to him as early as February 2002 that the military was scaling back the hunt for Osama Bin Laden in order to prepare for war in Iraq.
