Saudi Prince threatened Blair with terrorism

The Guardian UK is reporting that Saudi Prince Bandar threatened another 7/7 if investigations into their arms deals weren’t stopped:

Previously secret files describe how investigators were told they faced “another 7/7″ and the loss of “British lives on British streets” if they pressed on with their inquiries and the Saudis carried out their threat to cut off intelligence.

Prince Bandar, the head of the Saudi national security council, and son of the crown prince, was alleged in court to be the man behind the threats to hold back information about suicide bombers and terrorists. He faces accusations that he himself took more than £1bn in secret payments from the arms company BAE.

And remember, Bandar is Bush’s good friend. Bush and Prince Bandar Holding Hands
