You probably won't be seeing this Fifth Estate episode in the US, but the web feature is worth watching if you like conspiracy theories surrounding the US/Saudi/Bin Laden connection, intelligence breakdowns, and all manner of other strangeness.
"A third view, explored by the fifth estate, suggests something different altogether: that the evidence pointing to a pending attack was not pursued vigorously (consciously or unconsciously) simply because much of it led back to Saudi Arabia. And that Saudi Arabia holds a special place in the U.S. political, business and intelligence milieu. It's a country that is not held to the same standards of accountability as are other nations. The reason, of course, is America's enormous dependence on Saudi Arabia for oil. Remember: 15 of the 19 hijackers were Saudi citizens."
