For what it's worth, President Obama has officially vetoed a bill that could land Saudi Arabia in court over the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
The bill removes a foreign state's immunity to prosecution if it's involved in terrorism on U.S. soil. The White House claims the bill could do serious damage to U.S.-Saudi relations and encourage lawsuits against the U.S. from around the world.

But the administration's arguments have fallen flat in Congress, which has vowed to override the president's veto.
Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer, a co-sponsor of the bill, said after the veto that "If the Saudis did nothing wrong, they should not fear this legislation. ... The families of the victims of 9/11 deserve their day in court."
This is Obama's 12th veto since taking office, and it's potentially the first time Congress will override one of his vetoes.
