Victim families say it has ‘taken way too long’ to hold Saudi Arabia accountable for alleged support on 9/11

The leader of one group of 9/11 victims’ families says it has “taken way too long” to hold Saudi Arabia accountable for its alleged support of the terrorists who carried out the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, whose 25th anniversary is being observed across the US on Friday.

As that grim milestone approached, Terry Strada – the national chair of 9/11 Families United – said she felt as if it had “been several lifetimes” for there to be progress in the effort “to achieve a modicum of justice through our court system” in connection with the deadliest act of terror against the US.

But, even as the Saudis deny they had any role in 9/11, she added that she was as hopeful as ever that “the day of reckoning will come”.
