9/11 Report: "Incontrovertible Evidence" that Saudi Gov't Supported Hijackers

Democracy Now -- CIA and FBI Face Scathing Critique

The report finds that the Saudi Arabian government thwarted efforts to prevent the rise of Al-Qaeda and stop attacks as well as provided financial and logistical support to the Saudi-born 9/11 hijackers. 15 of the 19 hijackers on 9/11 were Saudi Arabian.

Large sections of the report explaining how the Saudis did not cooperate remains classified. The Washington Post reports an entire 28-page section detailing whether Saudi Arabia was somehow implicated in 9/11 remains classified. This despite a seven-month campaign by congressional investigators and others to have them made public.

The CIA argued that disclosure of the details could upset relations with a key US ally.
