We'll never know if they were connected to the attacks or not....they were never interviewed.

On what basis do you suspect they could have had that information?
Dexter:
Point is, they could well have been innocent, but it was WHO they were that got them out of the country unquestioned by the FBI, not what they knew/didn't know. The fact that it happened coupled with the part of the 9/11 report dealing with Saudi connections being classified that makes this whole thing stink.
If there was no Bush/house of Saud links, they would have been detained and questioned. This favouritism desecrated the memory of the people lost that day, its disgusting.
If it had been Clinton whisking off relatives of bin laden, and HIS family had links with the bin laden family, the republicans would have wanted his head on a pole, and they would have a point. Double standards as usual ::)
ChadTower:
Nowhere does it say they were given preferential flight status. Private jets are always given that type of treatment because they are able to get on and off the runway in minutes compared to the hours it takes a 747. They also very, very likely were taking off from private runways so they didn't even need clearance, just for the ban to be lifted so they can register their flight plans. That's how air travel works.
The only reason to have detained them would have been because they are Saudis. If the airport screeners aren't supposed to racially profile, and the police aren't supposed to racially profile, why would the FBI be allowed to racially profile?
Now, SHOULD they have been detained? Hell yes. No one here has given a legally credible reason for detaining them.

btw, that site bowlingforthetruth or whatever is the stupidest site I've ever seen.
did they think he wasn't going to edit anything? Everything was like he left scenes out... ooohh... of course he did. Its a movie.
I personally loved bowling for colimbined and hated 911. Thought 911 wasn't funny and nearly all the information was already known. And the others where un-proved.
but bowling was funny. And VERY flawed. Like he proved that gun ownership wasn't a problem (or thought he did with Canadians having more guns per capita)... But in the end started screaming at the Charles Heston about the deaths and gun ownership as the problem.
But all in all.. bowling was a funny movie... 911 just made me yawn... and I really don't like the presidant... believe he could be the worse presidant ever... and lies ever few minutes... makes decisions based PURELY to make his friends rich.... Wouldn't help anyone unless there is something in it for himself. But that didn't make me like 911.
btw, doesn't anyone find it funny that Bush flew back to washington to help Shivinos law (sp?) when he wouldn't come back for a tsunami. That and when he was the Texis Gov. he signed a law that allowed hosipitals to pull the plug on newborns AGAINST their parents will... But don't worry... The hosipitals decisions ARE based on the parents ability to pay! What a two faced di!@#... I wouldn't mind a pres that was for the sanctity of life... but not just when its appropriate for your voting base...

I'm still laughing over that one.
