Will "Intelligence Matters" Matter?

Democratic Sen. Bob Graham's book: "Intelligence Matters" alleges that the Bush admin. and the FBI are hiding evidence linking Saudi Arabia to Al-Qaeda.

  • Excerpts from Graham's book, which goes on sale on Tuesday, showed that at least two of the hijackers had support from Omar al-Bayoumi, whom the senator called a Saudi government spy and said was a ``ghost employee'' of a Saudi contracting firm, Erean. The owner of the firm, Graham said, was thought to be a supporter of Osama bin Laden.

    Sen. John Kerry called for an immediate investigation into Graham's allegations.``If the White House and the FBI did in fact block an investigation into the ties between the Saudi government and the 9/11 hijackers, then this would be a massive abuse of power,'' Kerry said in a statement.

    The Bush campaign dismissed the issue.``John Kerry is flailing about making baseless attacks founded on the assertions of a failed presidential candidate,'' Bush campaign spokesman Scott Stanzel said.Graham dropped out of the Democratic presidential race in October 2003.
