7 Wildest Details Of The New Bin Laden Bombshell

2. Saudi Arabia ordered bin Laden dead, to hide its role in his survival

Hersh’s source also says that Saudi Arabia “had been financing bin Laden’s upkeep since his seizure by the Pakistanis,” presumably through bankrolling the alleged ISI operations to keep the compound secure. This fear is linked to bin Laden’s Saudi nationality — which Saudi Arabia had revoked in 1994. Persistent allegations, especially among conspiracy theorists, highlight the U.S.-backed Saudi bankrolling of the groups which gave rise to al-Qaida in Afghanistan in the 1980s.

But this line of reasoning extends the conjecture to the present day, an absurd claim considering the many millions of dollars that Saudi Arabia has spent, dating back years before the 9/11 attacks, to discredit and destroy al-Qaida ever since the group’s denunciations of the kingdom’s friendly relationship with the U.S. became a threat to Saudi hegemony and stability.
