That's all true - I'm not claiming that 9/11 changed policy, I'm saying it accelerated it. The Saudi royal family was already being threatened by its own population: thus the majority of 9/11 attackers were Saudis; Saudi citizens who'd aligned themselves with Bin Laden rather than their royal family government. I'm pointing out that Bin Laden was doing his job: fomenting internal Saudi royal family opposition to point of coup, and at the same time he was preparing the Taliban to invade. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.
