there is proof of financial connections from wealthy Saudis running through Saudi backs to "firms" that are fronts for Al Qaeda. I don't know if that would be considered evidence of a Saudi government connection to Al Qaeda even if it might be evidence of insufficently energetic prosecution of the effort against Al Qaeda. There is also evidence of Saudi government money, coming from Saudi princes, financing Wahhabi Mullahs in this country and elsewhere. True Wahhabism is basicly the offical sect of Saudi Arabia, but Wahhabi Mullahs and Al Qaeda are not exactly the same thing even if Al Qaida is mostly Wahhabi. IMO, they are in mighty deep with Al Qaeda. Deeper than Afghanistan was, IMO, since most of the money for Al Qaeda comes from Saudis through Saudi Arabia. But in Afghanistan Al Qaeda was so entwined with the government that to an extent it was the government. Osama was defense minister and he and Mullah Omar married each others daughters. Al Qaeda fought side by side with the Taliban, I don't think funding, esp. funding through unoffical chanels and front companies by individual citizens qualifies as being in deeper then that. Tim
