Flow of Saudi Cash to Hamas Is Under Scrutiny by U.S.
RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, Sept. 16 Nearly a year ago, Khalid Mishaal, a senior leader of Hamas, the militant Palestinian organization, attended a charitable fund-raising conference here where he talked at length with Crown Prince Abdullah, the de facto Saudi ruler.
According to a summary of the meeting written by a Hamas official, Mr. Mishaal and other Hamas representatives thanked their Saudi hosts for continuing "to send aid to the people through the civilian and popular channels, despite all the American pressures exerted on them."


"This is indeed a brave posture deserving appreciation," the Hamas officials said, the document said.

1. but when it comes to Saudi funding of al Qaeda...
suddenly that scrutiny is nowhere to be found :eyes:


here's a good question: Why is BUSH'S LAWYER representing the Saudis in a lawsuit filed by 9/11 families, suing them for their financial support of al Qaeda???

I bet 9 of 10 'Murikans are unaware of this...

ps- this is the same James Baker law firn that represented the simian in Bush vs Gore
