Arbusto, BCCI, and the Carlyle Group, page 1: "So through George Bush's oil company, we can find numerous ties to both the corrupt BCCI bank, and direct ties to the Bin Laden family and al-Qaeda. Even more connections become clear when you take a look at the Carlyle Group.

Carlyle is an investment firm based in Washington, D.C, which has employed a great deal of political figures. Both George Bush Sr. and Jr. have worked for them, as well as former Secretary of State James Baker II. Famed Canadian businessman Paul Desmarais worked for them, and his company (Power Corporation of Canada), through its subsidiary Total, made deals with Saddam Huessin for oil exploration. Demarasais also sat on the board of the Barrick Gold Corporation, founded by the arms dealer Adnan Khashoggi, who's first employer was the Bin Laden family. Khashoggi was involved in both Iran Contra and the BCCI bank, and to make the connections spookier, George Bush Sr. was also in the employ of the Barrick Gold Corporation.

One member of Carlyle was Shafig Bin Laden, brother of Osama and Salem. He was in a meeting with the Carlyle Group on the morning of September 11th, 2001! The connections go back even further, however. In 1994, on behalf of Carlyle Group, George Bush Jr. visited the Bin Laden family in their home in Saudi Arabia.

The Carlyle Group profited greatly from 9/11. It owns United Defense, with whom the army signed contracts for millions and millions of dollars during the War on Terror. Another company owned by the Carlyle group is Booz Allen Hamilton, a government contractor who has done work for both the DHS and the NSA in the post 9/11 years, making gigantic profits."
