Well, we owe more to 9/11 families. Saudi Arabia was somewhat complicit in the 9/11 attacks. It should be held acountable. Iran and other nations have been sued by American terrorism victims. Saudi Arabia shouldn't receive any special treatment.
I'm appalled that this President immediately announced he would veto the 9/11 bill. He chose the Saudi Royal Family over his own People. It's unforgivable.
No he isn't, he's choosing the status quo over rocking the boat. He's looking after ALL of the US people and not just the families of those who died in 9/11.
I'm not saying it's right or wrong, I have no opinion over the issue in any way other than when Michael Moore pointed out this could happen you all called him names.
No, he's selling his soul to the Devil. He should do the right thing and release the documents and support the 9/11 bill. Saudi Arabia shouldn't receive special treatment. We owe that to our People.
And what of the hundreds of thousands that lose their jobs if the Saudis decide to pull their money out of America? What of the stretch on the tax payer for all of those people on welfare? What of the their kids who have to go hungry?
And all for for a few hundred families who have been without loved one for over 15 years now, who if they haven't found closure by now never will.
You are arguing from an overly emotive standpoint on an idealistic point that has no practical basis in the real world. 9/11 happened, Bin Laden is dead and its toxic legacy has been a ruined middle east, a graveyard full of dead soldiers, civilian deaths dwarfing the number on 9/11 to near nothing and rampant Islamophobia and paranoia across the US for generations.
Can't people like you stop banging on about it and let the history books close on this absolute greek tragedy once and for all?
What about Justice?
If you believe there is such a thing in the world then you're very naive.
I still believe in Justice. We should side with our 9/11 families. If that's 'naive', than so be it.
