The reference to the list is the first public indication that U.S. authorities have specific information as to the identities of the financiers of Osama bin Laden's terror network, but it is unclear what, if any, action has been taken against the persons named in the document.

The handwritten list -- referred to within al Qaida as "The Golden Chain" -- details 20 wealthy donors to al Qaida followed by the specific recipient of the funding. Osama bin Laden's name appears next to seven of the entries, including at least one donation made by the "bin Laden brothers," according to the court document.

MOre good news.

War on Iraq is partly about Saudi Arabia.

I doubt we will be buying much oil from Saudi after we are in Iraq.

Exactly.

Thus loosening the leash in terms of dealing with Saudi terror funding.
