9/11 families urge president to force Saudi prince to accept blame for attacks

Family and loved ones of 9/11 victims are urging the Trump administration to compel Saudi Arabia to “ensure accountability” with a federal lawsuit against the Kingdom.

The thousands of family members — many from New England — want the U.S. to force Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to apologize for alleged involvement in the terror attacks, finally.

“We are not calling for isolation or hostility — we are calling for accountability for the Saudi role in the attacks on September 11, 2001,” National Chair of 9/11 Families United Terry Strada wrote in a release shared with the Herald. “Before we talk about defense pacts or nuclear technology, let’s first talk about justice.”

President Donald Trump is set to host the Crown Prince on Tuesday for talks to, hopefully, normalize commercial and diplomatic ties between Israel and Saudi Arabia.
