No one wants the United States to be called into courts all over the world to defend claims against us.
Plus it is just a silly concept. Courts in the United States have no authority to compel evidence be produced by any other country. A legitimate trial would be impossible. It would be nothing but a publicity scam, yet it could lead to Saudi Arabian assets in the US being frozen.
The relationship shoulda already been destabilized, on human rights violations, let alone 9/11, much Like we destabablized our relationship(s) With the countries we invaded as a result of the attacks.
I see your point about litigations. Still, The message may be the point here.
