London, The Sunday Times:
SENIOR members of the Saudi royal family paid at least £200m to Osama Bin Laden’s terror group and the Taliban in exchange for an agreement that his forces would not attack targets in Saudi Arabia, according to court documents.
The papers, filed in a $3,000 billion lawsuit in America, allege
the deal was agreed after two secret meetings between Saudi royals and leaders of Al-Qaeda, including Bin Laden. The money enabled Al-Qaeda to fund training camps in Afghanistan later attended by the September 11 hijackers. ..................................

WASHINGTON - Sheik Saleh Al Luhaidan, seen in video seated to the right of the crown prince, is chief justice of Saudi Arabia's Supreme Judicial Council. His sermons and words carry great significance.
In an audiotape secretly recorded at a government mosque last October and obtained by NBC News, Luhaidan encourages young Saudis to go to Iraq to wage war against Americans.
"If someone knows that he is capable of entering Iraq in order to join the fight, and if his intention is to raise up the word of God, then he is free to do so," says Luhaidan in Arabic on the tape.
