Senator Bob Graham On Bush-Saudi-9/11 Coverup (This was a live interview with Huffington Post - click here)
An Op-Ed in the NY Post is raising new suspicions about Saudi Arabia's role in 9/11 and the Bush Administration's role in covering it up. We discuss the cover up with former Senator and Chairman of the Select Intelligence Committee Bob Graham.
He has been seeking release of the redacted documents for public knowledge since leaving office in 2005. His efforts has spanned ten years. I have no other knowledge about the concerns of Bob Graham other than what I read and hear.
I will say this. Former Senator Graham has become more and more marginalized by the denial of the American government. He has sought reasonable solutions to his worry and transparency of the 28 pages and otherwise. There is no reason for Bob Graham to continue to worry ten years after the attacks of September 11, 2001, except, for the safety of the American people.

Miami Lakes, Fla. — The episode (click here) could have been a chapter from the thriller written by former Senator Bob Graham of Florida about a shadowy Saudi role in the Sept. 11 attacks.
A top F.B.I.
official unexpectedly arranges a meeting at Dulles International
Airport outside Washington with Mr. Graham, the former chairman of the
Senate Intelligence Committee, after he has pressed for information on a
bureau terrorism inquiry. Mr. Graham, a Democrat, is then hustled off
to a clandestine location, where he hopes for a breakthrough in his long
pursuit of ties between leading Saudis and the Sept. 11 hijackers.
This real-life encounter happened in 2011, Mr. Graham said, and it took a startling twist.
“He basically said, ‘Get a life,’ ” Mr. Graham said of the F.B.I. official, who suggested that the former senator was chasing a dead-end investigation....
This issue is not going away. Former Senator Graham wants transparency. It is noteworthy, Saudi Arabia brought Mr. Bandar home and restructured their diplomatic mission. The Saudi Arabia government was not comfortable with the coziness of Mr. Bandar and Mr. Bush when they realized what was going on. I don't know why the transparency is not coming forward. Before the events of September 11, 2001 the Saudi government knews there was funding for terrorists, but, their status of funding an overthrow of the USA government is not accurate. As a matter of fact in recent news there was an attempted attack of the Saudi Arabian Embassy (click here), But, when listening to Bob Graham he reaches past any doubt. The facts and 28 pages have to be released. He wants the investigation of September 11,2001 to be reopened. Will the US House initiate such an investigation? No.
