Terrorist Bedfellows

Another example of how the biased liberal mainstream media is surrending all of Western Civilization has come to the fore, in the story that was all over the cable news channels & broadcast network programs. You remember, the story that Prince Bandar of Saudi Arabia (Yes, the former Saudi ambassador to the U. S, who was chosen by George H. W. Bush & his braintrust to educate George W[orst] Bush on international affairs.) told Tony Blair, then-prime minister of the U. K., to stop investigating the bribes Bandar had rec'd. from BAE, Britain's largest defense co., or Bandar, now head of the Saudi Security Council, would stop providing information about possible Islamist terror attacks to the Brits. As they say, w/ "friends" like this you don't need enemies.
Using a sheaf of previously secret documents, the court is now hearing how BAE obtained the help of powerful friends to stop the fraud investigators. They included the then prime minister, Tony Blair, and one of Saudi Arabia's most influential princes, Bandar bin Sultan. Bandar does not deny himself receiving £1bn from BAE for his own purposes, although he denies there was anything wrong with the secret payments. The two judges appeared yesterday to have some trouble wrestling with the concepts involved. Moses said that surely, in Britain, for a suspect to issue threats of dire consequences if an investigation went ahead was simply "a criminal offence".
Seems as if the Limeys have their own Blackwater:
There is a state within a state in the United Kingdom, a small but untouchable domain that appears to be subject to a different set of laws. We have heard quite a bit about it over the past two months, but hardly anyone knows just how far its writ runs. The state is BAE Systems, Britain's biggest arms company. It seems, among other advantages, to be able to run its own secret service.
Big ups to Britain's own Guardian, for breaking this story that our own left-wing pinko media have used to shame & embarrass the Bush Administration. What? You say this hasn't been the lead story? That the leftist pinko scum whose only interest is to make G. W. Bush look like an even digger douchebag than he already is haven't been all over this? You must be kidding! How could those biased liberals miss a chance to show how the Saudi royal family & their allies in crime, the Bush family, haven't the slightest concern for Western Civilization or its safety? A Google search of "Prince Bandar + BAE" had this article as the second ranking American story. The first is from the NYT of 8 June 2007. Google hasn't anything about this latest horror from any American news source. Liberal bias? Bush Derangement Syndrome? Please!!
