A new bulletin from the FBI has revealed that the Saudi government 'almost certainly' helped its citizens escape prosecution for serious crimes they were charged with in the US, and American officials looked the other way for years.
The secret effort was carried out to spare the Persian Gulf kingdom embarrassment, while US officials looked the other way for years, and will likely continue without their intervention, the FBI said in the bulletin released Friday.
The revelation comes after President Donald Trump signed into law a requirement backed by Representative Ron Wyden of Oregon that the FBI disclose what it knows about the Saudi government's suspected role in helping its citizens avoid prosecution in the US.

If we are too cowardly to do anything to Saudi Arabia, then we should hold those who were holding these rats in custody responsible.
We do have a small problem with Israel harboring a number of U.S. citizens who are felony fugitives. We should really work that out.
this isn`t really news considering that all of the 9/11 terrorists were saudi`s and the U.S. government covered saudi arabia for that mess. i guess it`s true that he who has the gold makes the rukles and when oil is the gold then the saudis make the rules that the U.S. government bows to.
