Now it is being openly admitted that the Saudis did it and "we don't want to know." [View all]

Everyone knows it.



But they don't want to "officially" know it. The Obama admin is squelching a lawsuit against Saudi Arabia on the grounds of "international immunity" whatever that is and this weasel in the above clip named Steven Rattner says that we should just forget about it because they supply our oil and we need them.

Who is Steven Rattner?

* Lead auto advisor ("car czar&quot in the US Treasury Department under President Obama.
*Founding principal of Quadrangle Group, a global private equity firm specializing in the media
*Former Deputy Chairman and Deputy CEO at Lehman Brothers, Morgan Stanley, and Lazard Freres & Co.,
*Current chairman of investment firm that manages Mayor Bloomberg's personal assets.

So it is now openly admitted that the US doesn't want to know.

Is it still a "conspiracy theory" to say that Bin Laden's relatives were protected and hustled out of the country?
