16. In the article you cite Prince Bandar is mentioned. His wife Haifa
wrote checks to two of the 9/11 terrorists. And those checks came from Riggs Bank with Dubya's Uncle.


Mark Steyn, "Bush and the Saudi Princess" :
https://mail.lsit.ucsb.edu/pipermail/gordon-newspost/2002-December/003897.html
Bush must have known for the best part of a year that in the run-up to 11 September Bandar's wife, Princess Haifa, had been making regular transfers from her Washington bank account to a couple of known associates of the terrorists. Bandar must have known Bush knew. Each party knows the other party knows they're engaged in a charade, but they observe the niceties, with Laura showing Princess Haifa the ranch, Bush hailing the 'eternal friendship' between the Saudi and American people, and Bandar regretting, as the Saudis always do, that they're unable to be more helpful.
