Is the UAE Blackmailing Bush Over 9/11?

I have to admit that I originally thought that all of this hoopla over the UAE port scandal was a stunt designed to reinforce the official 9/11 conspiracy theory. Judging by a number of indicators, the truth about 9/11 is exploding. The mounting evidence that blows the official conspiracy theory out of the water is starting to trickle into the mainstream. I am getting the feeling that the media (co conspirators) and the culprits are feeling the heat and becoming desperate. As a result, I thought the UAE non-scandal was an effort to reconnect the events of 9/11 to the so-called , many of whom are still walking around, according to numerous media reports ( other than American media, of course!).

But I just heard something interesting from one of my sources (actually the story is second hand). There seems to be speculation that the UAE may be blackmailing George W. Bush into supporting their port deal. It has been suggested that the UAE would surely know whether or not the “claims” made about them by the US regarding the events of 9/11 were true or not. Perhaps they remained silent because there was something in it for them. Perhaps the port deal is part of the deal.

1. It's not blackmail -
they just want paid for the "job" before Bush goes out of business...

2. Kick
If true, it would be great if they release information to the public.

3. Personally, I think the entire family is compromised.
There's gotta bea lot of stuff thatthe House of Saud has on the Bush family. I think Rev. Moon also has something on the family. Remember that front page story about maleprostitutes in the Times in the late 80's? There's a lot of cmpromised people in Washington, pols and talking heads. That's the only thing that can explain why the all this wierd shit happens.

4. I'm not sure, but...
One of the hijackers, Fayez Ahmed, who is an Emirati, doesn't seem right (i.e. the rest of the muscle hijackers are very similar people, but he's different). In fact I think the FBI must have confused him with somebody else - the media certainly have. See the long discussion here:

There's also the question of the financing - the mysterious Al Hawsawi, who operated out of the UAE in the run up to the attacks. One of the rumours is that some of the stock options on United and American were placed by him from Dubai. This rumour sounds credible on the face of it, but I'm not so sure myself. You can find a very interesting discussion of Mr. Hawsawi (or rather the person who was probably using this identity) here:

I actually doubt the UAE is blackmailing Bush, but the idea is plausible. More likely the problem is that if the deal failed, there would be a big drop in foreign direct investment in the US.

5. This was my first explanation after being stunned by the impolitic deal.
It simply makes no sense. Surely Rove or somebody must have said, "Look, this is just gong to ruin you. You'll drop even more in the polls. Forget it, let's do something else for them." Surely it was given but this advise was ignored.

There's a saying, "They've got the pictures" which means simply, the people getting the favors have evidence of such devastating behavior by the public figure, they must have pictures of it.

Well, Dubai's got the pictures;)
