While scanning other news outlets tonight, I came across this CHILLING disclosure involving an investigation by the Secretary of the Treasury Paul O'Neill back in 2002 who went to Dubai to find out about the $109,000 wire transfer to Mahammed Atta in Florida. The pressure he put on the UAE got him FIRED by the Bush administration!

"The Houses of Bush, Sabah, and Maktoum. The Bush family's close business dealings with the royal houses of Kuwait (the Sabah family) and Dubai (the Maktoum family) either borders on or is treason according to information received from U.S. military and Persian Gulf sources.
UAE banking insiders have revealed that accounts used to fund the Taliban and Al Qaeda involved members of the Dubai royal family. Banking insiders in Dubai report that in March 2002, U.S. Secretary of Treasury Paul O’Neill visited Dubai and asked for documents on a $109,500 money transfer from Dubai to a joint account held by hijackers Mohammed Atta and Marwan al Shehhi at Sun Trust Bank in Florida. O’Neill also asked UAE authorities to close down accounts used by Al Qaeda and affiliated partners like Victor Bout. The UAE complained about O’Neill’s demands to the Bush administration. O’Neill’s pressure on the UAE and Saudis contributed to Bush firing him as Treasury Secretary in December 2002."
