Saudi Minister: Jews Behind 9/11 Attacks
2002-12-05
The Saudi police minister has claimed Jews were behind the Sept. 11 attacks because they have benefited from subsequent criticism of Islam and Arabs, according to media reports.
Interior Minister Prince Nayef made the remarks in the Arabic-language Kuwaiti daily Assyasah last month. The latest edition of Ain al-Yaqeen, a weekly Internet magazine devoted to Saudi issues, posted the Assyasah interview and its own English translation.
These guys don't seem to realize we are listening. Good, keep it up. Oh, and we are taking notes.
"We know that the Jews have manipulated the Sept. 11 incidents and turned American public opinion against Arabs and Muslims," Prince Nayef was quoted as saying in the Arabic text, while Ain al Yaqeen's English version referred to "Zionists" instead of "Jews." "We still ask ourselves: Who has benefited from Sept. 11 attacks? I think they (the Jews) were the protagonists of such attacks," Nayef was quoted as saying. Nayef's spokesman, Saud al-Musaibeeh, did not respond to repeated requests for confirmation the minister had been quoted accurately.
Not a good time to be a Saudi spokesman.
The Internet magazine's English translation of the comments began to attract attention in the United States just as the Saudis launched a new public relations campaign to address accusations the kingdom is soft on terrorism and inculcates extremist thought among its citizens.
So much for that campaign.
"The Saudis are telling us that they are an ally in the war on terror while their top government officials are still blaming ... the Jews and denying that 15 Saudis took part in the attacks on New York and the Pentagon (news - web sites)," Rep. Eliot Engel, a New York Democrat, said in Washington earlier this week.

"The Bush administration continually defends Saudi Arabia as a friend of the United States and a committed partner in the war on terror," Engel said. "Does this Saudi minister sound like a partner in the war on terror?"
No.
Sen. Charles Schumer, also a New York Democrat, wrote this week in a letter to the Saudi ambassador to the United States that "the interior minister's comments only serve to confirm American suspicions about the Saudi government's commitment to the war on terror."

Nayef's remarks echoed rumors that have been heard in the Arab world since the attacks — but this time they are attributed to the man in charge of Saudi investigations into the attacks.
The Saudi minister was quoted in the interview as saying his kingdom is currently detaining some 100 terror suspects for interrogation. He added that the suspects "will either apologize for their mistakes and change their course or will be referred to trial."
Just say you're sorry and you get out of jail free, huh?
In the interview, Nayef said he could not believe that bin Laden and his network, including Saudi participants, worked alone. He was quoted as saying he believed terrorist networks have links to "foreign intelligence agencies that work against Arab and Muslim interests, chief among them is the Israeli Mossad."
"It's the JEWS!" Ok, Nayef, we'll carve that on your headstone.

America's Reichstag Fire
September 11, 2001 -- The most massive so-called 'terrorist' attacks on US soil since the Oklahoma City bombings of 1995, were known, a week ahead of time, by the American CIA. Among the foreign intelligence agencies who penetrated the plots were the French CIA and Israel's The Mossad, units of both often working with one another. Full story: skolnicksreport.com

#4  The Donks are finally getting a clue, attacking Bush via his "The Saudis are our Friends" statements. Hopefully, after Iraq, Bush will turn his attention to the Saudis, explain how his statements were diversionary in a humbling, "beating his breast", apology to the American People before he bombs the cr*p out of the b*st*rds. THEN, when these same guys try to object, he'll gut them with their own statements.

We are indeed living in interesting times...

#2  I agree with Nayef - bin Laden and his network, including his huge number of Saudi participants, did not work alone -- they worked TOGETHER!
And so must we.

#1  It must be easy to play "Clue" in Islamania. "Mr. Jew" did it, wherever it was done, and with whatever weapon it was done with.
