McVisas for Saudis
(Washington Times) Joel Mowbray - The September 11 commission revealed that one of the biggest difficulties faced by al-Qaeda was getting hijackers into the U.S. - unless they were Saudis. All 19 hijackers entered the U.S. on legal visas, even though at least 15 of them didn't qualify under the law. Three non-Saudis identified by the commission tried and failed to receive visas, including the would-be fifth pilot, Ramzi bin al-Shieb, a Yemeni national.
