The program said the younger George Bush made his first million 20
years ago with an oil company partly funded by the chief US
representative of Salem bin Laden, Osama's brother, who took over as
head of the family after his father Mohammed's death in a plane crash in
1968.

Young George also received fees as director of a subsidiary of Carlyle
Corporation, a little-known private company which in just a few years of
its founding has become one of America's biggest defence contractors,
and his father, Bush Senior, is also a paid adviser, the program said.

And it became embarrassing when it was revealed that the bin Ladens
held a stake in Carlyle, sold just after September 11, it added.

The program said it had been told by a highly-placed source in a US
intelligence agency that there had always been "constraints" on
investigating Saudis, but under President Bush it had become much
worse.

After the elections, the intelligence agencies were told to "back off" from
investigating the bin Laden family and the Saudi royals, and that angered
field agents, the program added.

The policy was reversed after September 11, it reported.

The program was told by FBI headquarters that it could not comment on
its findings.
