http://dailycaller.com/2018/06/08/iran- ... olitician/A prominent Iranian politician admitted that Iran knowingly facilitated the passage of al-Qaeda members who later carried out the September 11, 2001 terror attacks, potentially confirming allegations in a 9/11 Commission report.
Mohammad-Javad Larijani, a former diplomat, member of a politically influential Iranian family, and current international affairs assistant in the Iranian judiciary, made the comments in an interview with Iranian state TV on May 30, according to an Al Arabiya report. The interview translation was independently confirmed by The Daily Caller News Foundation.
The 9/11 Commission Report was released on July 22, 2004. It is the official report of the events leading up to and after the events of the terror attacks, and was put together by the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States at the request of Congress and then-President George W. Bush.
There was strong evidence that al-Qaeda hijackers traveled through Iran “on their way to or from Afghanistan, taking advantage of the Iranian practice of not stamping Saudi passports,” the report stated.
“We believe this topic requires further investigation by the U.S. government,” the commission concluded.
The commission refered to the no-stamp situation as an Iranian practice; however, Larijani recalled it slightly differently. The al-Qaeda members asked the Iranian authorities not to stamp their passports because the Saudi government would prosecute them if it knew they traveled to Iran, he said.
“Our government agreed not to stamp the passports of some of them because they were on transit flights for two hours, and they were resuming their flights without having their passports stamped,” Larijani said. “However their movements were under the complete supervision of the Iranian intelligence.”
One of the pilots who passed through Iranian airspace before September 11 was responsible for carrying out the attacks, and a Hezbollah military leader sat next to him, Larijani added.

Re: THE ERA OF TRUMP
Another country attacked in retaliation for a terrorist atrocity they didn't commit?
Thought you wanted fewer foreign entanglements.
Meanwhile Trump brags about all the weapons he's sold to Saudi Arabia, where the majority of the terrorists came from.
Did we ever get an answer to the question
''why is Saudi Arabia not on the Muslim travel ban list?''
Other than ''money'' obviously...

For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

Unemployment at record lows. Stock market at record highs. Global trade deals being renegotiated. Talks with NK after six decades of fragile armistice and nuclear threat.
... media still running 90% negative stories about the prez while lefties screech about racism and nuclear Hitler.
Interesting times.

No one who has been a part of the duopolist shit show that got us here today can afford to admit that lots of things are looking better. Not the media, not the Democrats, and not the Republicans.
The low-info voters are especially bewildered and terrified. I mean, WTF why so much winning under Hitler v2.0!?!?
They’re running themselves ragged trying to explain why the worst disaster of a president EVER is making life better in America, and their explanations are just getting crazier by the day.

All fun and games, until the market collapses. That’s when things will get very real, fast.
