Long before last month’s release of a 2016 FBI report about Operation Encore, the bureau’s probe into possible Saudi complicity in 9/11, top Trump administration officials swore under “penalty of perjury” that information in the report was a “state secret” whose public release was likely to cause “significant harm to the national security.”

UPDATE – Sept. 18 – Agreeing with arguments made by lawyers for the 9/11 Families, a federal magistrate has extended until April 1 the deadline for filing expert reports. The delay will allow time for experts for both sides to digest a mountain of potential evidence about possible Saudi Arabian complicity in the 2001 terrorist attacks that the FBI and other government agencies are expected to declassify and make public through March under the terms of President Biden’s recent executive order.
