After 16, the new number is 28. The issue now is the 28 pages that have been blanked out from a Congressional investigation into the intelligence failure of 9/11
The tone was set early in the day when Sen. Bob Graham (D-Fla.), a presidential candidate who chaired the Senate intelligence committee during the investigative phase of the report, told CBS' "Early Show" that the "censored" information showed that a "foreign government ... was providing a variety of assistance to these hijackers." He said he could not divulge the identity of the country but when asked he did not deny that the government was Saudi Arabia.
The other pages in the document which have been made public have criticized Saudi Arabia and a number of officials have complained about the lack of co-operation from the Saudis. But still why are these pages being blanked out ? What is wrong if American people know what was the Saudi involvement ?
