unfreakin' believable. So many clueless folks in our country right now.

Indeed some people are hoping that the Saudis will get charged and then they can't be later on down the road.

bruce you are still an idiot--I thought aging would give you more common sense. But NOPE!

The Saudis were, at best, patsies. Three thousand American patriots — military and intelligence personnel, engineers, architects, professors, pilots — do not believe the official account of 9/11. Go to http://www.twf.org/News/Y20... and download the FREE book "9/11 Unveiled" — RICHARD M NIXON'S foreign policy advisor has written: "9/11 UNVEILED" . . . is the BEST short summary of what most Americans and virtually all of the rest of the world consider to be the 9/11 mystery”.

It is the perpetrators of a most vicious murder conspiracy who refuse to release the "28" pages to the public because they "know" it will lead to the entire house of cards eventually coming back to them. And no, it's not the Saudis I'm talking about.

Sue Saudi; no way!! Sue Israel's pants off. The Jooz are the ones who initiated all the problems; especially for America!!!

At best, the Saudis were patsies in the attacks of 9/11. FBI Director Mueller has said more than once that the identity of the hijackers remains in doubt. The British press reported several hijackers alive. The passenger lists released within a day or two of 9/11 had no Arab names on them. The 9/11 Commission’s Chairman Kean and vice-chair Hamilton in their book, Without Precedent: The Inside Story of the 9/11 Commission, write that they were “setup to fail”. Sen Cleland resigned from the 9/11 Commission saying, “It’s a scam”. Sen Kerrey “threatened to resign”. Download my FREE book "9/11 Unveiled" at http://www.twf.org/Library/... for more.

Does the bill also allow innocent civilians killed by the US military in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria and Libya to sue the US government?

Why bring this up now and blame President Obama?!!

It was Bush Jr. who evacuated 140 Saudi nationals, including two dozen Bin Laden family members, immediately after 9/11. http://www.hermes-press.com...

And why not question Netanyahu's motives for pushing the Bush Jr. Administration into attacking Iraq and plunging the Middle East into open war? Or, mention the possibility that his operatives knew of the 9/11 plot in advance, but kept it from the US and used it to get US public opinion on Bibi's side and kill the peace process which the US and Rabin had worked so hard to move forward? https://www.youtube.com/wat...

On 911 an office tower was hit. All thought it a tragic accident. There were only six known exceptions to this: The dancing, celebrating Israelis arrested in New Jersey who had Mossad connections and who were sent there to record the "event". The second tower was hit and the whole world knew what these six Israeli agents knew already - it was a terrorist attack.

Yes, pass S. 2040. It will open up Israel to lawsuits that will shed light on the Israeli complicity.

After 911 the Israel Firsters moved heaven and earth to see to it that the 911 Commission was half Jewish and that the employees gathering and presenting evidence were Jewish. These people probably did not know the extent to which Israel was the cause of the terrorist attack or if it was but they clearly suspected a connection. Let's get it all out in the open. Pass S.2040.

Open American courts to Israel being sued for their role, be it simply not telling America what it knew - they did have agents recording the attacks or did it's agents guide Arab patsies. After all Bibi himself stated in the days following 911 that it was 'good for Israel'.

The door will be opened to suing foreign governments, not just Saudi Arabia. That means Israel too.To the Israel Lobby pushing S. 2040: Be careful what you pray for, God might answer your prayers and give it to you.

While I strongly endorse making the 28 pages public I question why the US Government's cover up over the USS Liberty has never generated similar reaction . The Liberty was a virtually unarmed USS ship which our supposed ally, Israel, made an unprovoked sneak attack and tried to sink in 1967. Unlike this current scandal there is no question whether that sovereign nation. Israel, was responsible but my government deliberately shut down inquiries and PROHIBITED families of the dead and wounded from pursuing legal against Israel. Our President at the time. LBJ, personally approved that action. Do a GOOGLE search. The majority of today's American citizens are not aware of the Liberty "incident". a testimony to "our Governments" success in burying that tragedy.
There are those who will try to dismiss my post claiming I am anti-Semitic; not so. I served on a sister ship of the USS LIBERTY (AGTR-5); the USS JAMESTOWN (AGTR-3) and had many friends, including some who died, on the Liberty.
"On Thursday 8 June 1967, Israeli air and naval forces attacked America’s most advanced spy ship, the U.S.S. Liberty, killing 34 of its crew and wounding 174."

Israel may have had a greater hand in 9/11. The pattern set in 1967, covering up for Israeli aggression, remains a major contributor to U.S. problems in the Middle East — http://www.twf.org/News/Y20...
