The September 11, 2001 attacks in the US were a false flag operation carried out jointly by the US, Israel and Saudi Arabia with "Zionists playing the lead role," an analyst tells Press TV.
On Thursday, a US federal court ruled that relatives of people who died in the 9/11 attacks can sue Saudi Arabia, reversing a lower court ruling in 2002 that had found the kingdom immune from lawsuits.
The complaint states that much of the funding for the al-Qaeda terrorists involved in the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon came from Saudi Arabia.
Dr. Kevin Barrett, a member of the Scientific Panel for the Investigation of 9/11, rejects the official narrative, saying Saudi Arabia is a "puppet of the US and other Western governments.
There were no hijackers, there were no hijackings, this has been proved in many, many ways, Dr. Barrett said on Saturday. Ten of the 19 guys they blamed were still alive after 9/11, he added.
Rather, he said, Saudi intelligence was used by the real perpetrators of Sept. 11 to create a legend, to set up the patsies who would be blamed for this event.
Dr. Barrett said a suppressed report by the Congressional Joint Inquiry of 2002 would shed light on the true perpetrators of the attacks, should it become public. The controversial document, however, has remained classified to this day.
Former Sen. Bob Graham (D-Fla.) who chaired the inquiry at the time has stated that the document includes information implicating a foreign government, Dr. Barrett said. But there has been such a cover-up, he added.
The September 11 attacks, also referred to as 9/11 were a series of four coordinated attacks upon the US cities of New York and the Washington, DC which killed nearly 3,000 people.
Poster Comment:
Probably as accurate a 9/11 summary as you will find except for clarity US involvement was that part of US government which was and still is under the control of the Israeli lobby which included Bush, his henchmen and the majority of congress, aided by Jew duals in the judiciary.
