OBL Connected Guest was at SOTU

From Jeremy Scahill at Guerrilla News. As Cindy Sheehan was being tossed out, Turki al-Faisal was just getting comfortable. Who is he?

he personally managed Riyadh’s relations with Osama bin Laden and Mullah Muhammad Omar of the Taliban. Anyone else who had dealings with even a fraction
of the notorious characters the prince has worked with over the years would never make it past a U.S. immigration counter, let alone to the most exclusive offices in Washington.” Al-Faisal was also named in the $1 trillion lawsuit filed by hundreds of 9/11 victims’ families, who accused him of funding bin Laden’s network. Curiously, his tenure as head of Saudi intelligence came to an abrupt and unexpected end 10 days before the 9/11 attacks.

Hope the administration is tapping their friends' phones along with all the others.
