Reply #95: I agree and think it has more than one purpose. Further vilify Iran and garner sympathy for Saudis.

I had a prior post from another of many small DU posts on this one topic: (My own experience, take with salt)

Interesting BBC story progression tonight. And, is a PR firm trying to sell Saudis?

BBC had a guy on tonight who said that the hit looked nothing like a hit done by Iran. He went on to describe the kind of hit they would generally employ. Hm-mm.
The questioning continued to imply the investigation as a done-deal as though the detailed answer had taken the moderator too much by surprise.

Then, for a couple of hours, the story came with the Iran-hit-inconsistency caveat.

Then, after about four hours, a woman gave what would be another interview. No mention of the detail given earlier either to correct it as a mistake or to restate it as from another expert.

Move along folks, nothing to see here now.

Going further with the theme of this being a setup: my first thought is that this would be another, the second I recollect, PR attempt to make Saudis appear victims and that could be in order to garner sympathy as their once hidden role in 9/11 unravels into revelations.
