The Ploy to Shift 9\/11 Blame to Iran<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/header>\n
\n

The U.S. government often plays the game of blaming \u201cenemies\u201d and excusing \u201cfriends,\u201d a particularly ugly reality in the push to blame Iran and absolve Saudi Arabia for the 9\/11 attacks, says 9\/11 widow Kristen Breitweiser.<\/p>\n

\n

Largely unreported and widely unknown is the recent push<\/a> to re-establish an Iranian role in the 9\/11 attacks. To be more specific, some in Washington<\/a> are currently trying to allege that Iran played a larger role in the 9\/11 attacks than the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Why this assertion about Iran<\/a> \u2014 that has been lying fallow for years \u2014 is so recently being resurrected raises questions, bears scrutiny, and begs an examination.<\/p>\n

Prior to delving into the Iranian question, some background is needed to best understand the rather inorganic<\/em> evolution<\/em> of this Iranian \u201cevidence.\u201d As many know, the 9\/11 Families have spent the past 16 years trying to hold the perpetrators of the 9\/11 attacks accountable for the mass murder of our loved ones.<\/p>\n

First, we fought<\/a> for the 9\/11 Commission<\/a> so that we might have an independent investigation into the attacks, learn lessons, fix problems, and hold those in government accountable for their failures that contributed to the vast devastation of that horrific day. Next, as an expressly granted right given to us by Congress in the creation of the 2001 Airline Stabilization Act<\/a> (more commonly known as the 9\/11 Victims\u2019 Compensation Fund), we attempted to hold all the co-conspirators of the 9\/11 attacks accountable in a federal court of law. Notably, to the 9\/11 Families, the definition of \u201cco-conspirators\u201d was always a \u201cboth-and\u201d situation, not the more exclusionary \u201ceither-or\u201d scenario. In other words, we wanted any and all of those who played a hand (however large or small) in the murder of our loved ones held accountable.<\/p>\n
