More Reports on Need To Release ’28 Pages’

Media coverage continues, on the drive to get the missing “28 pages” of the 9/11 Joint Congressional Inquiry report released, specifically to expose the Saudi Arabia/London role in terrorism. A posting on yesterday’s Daily Beast stresses the essential point repeated by former Sen. Bob Graham, co-author of the report: The real “threat to national security is non-disclosure.”

Writer Eleanor Clift, in the Daily Beast article, “The Missing Pages of the 9/11 Report” (Jan. 12) opens,

“The lead author of the Senate’s report on 9/11 says its time to reveal what’s in the 28 pages that were redacted from it, which he says will embarrass the Saudis….”

She covers the Jan. 7 press conference by Graham and Congressmen Jones and Lynch, writing,

“And according to Graham … the pages point a very strong finger at Saudi Arabia as the principal financier of the 9/11 hijackers…The pages are being kept under wraps out of concern their disclosure would hurt U.S. national security. But as chairman of the Senate Select Committee that issued the report in 2002, Graham argues the opposite is true, and that the real ‘threat to national security is non-disclosure.'”

This Clift piece, in turn, is covered in an article on newsmax.com today, titled, “Bob Graham: Redacted Pages in 9/11 Report ‘Point’ to Saudis,” by writer Drew MacKenzie.

RT in Spanish published a story mid-afternoon on Jan. 12, called “The 28 Pages Which Could Change the View of 911,” which succinctly reports that

“a bipartisan group of U.S. congressmen have joined the families of 9/11 victims to redouble their efforts and declassify the 28 pages.”

The article then proceeds to quote Senator Graham:

“It is no longer a secret that the 28 pages of the report point the accusing finger at the government of Saudi Arabia as the principal actor in the terrorist attacks…. The position of the United States government has been to protect Saudi Arabia…. In practically all steps of the judicial process, when the United States government was called only to take a position, this was a position against the interests of citizens of the United States….” [Emphasis RT’s]

HispanTV (Iran’s Spanish-language TV network) filed a sharp, 2-1/2 minute story on Jan. 8 on the 28 pages press conference, featuring interviews that HispanTV’s reporter, Mendoza, did with Jones, Graham, Strada, and Steinberg, after the press conference.

DiarioDigitalRD, of the Dominican Republic, and a news site servicing the (large) Dominican community in New York City, have published LPAC’s press release on the press conference.

       

‘Links to U.K.’—Finsbury Mosque

Coverage is continuing, on the British terrorism connections. An article posted today in RT UK, is titled, “Charlie Hebdo Gunman’s Mentor Had Links to U.K. and Abu Hamza.” The lengthy report begins,
“One of the two Charlie Hebdo suspects, Cherif Kouachi, was reportedly mentored by al-Qaeda lynchpin Djamel Beghal, who has lived in the U.K. and had close ties to Finsbury Park Mosque. He has spun his web of terror cells since 9/11….”
