Fahrenheit 9/11 (2004): James Bath Investment

The clip James Bath investment from Fahrenheit 9/11 (2004)

Perhaps he was worried that the American people would find out...
...that at one time, James R. Bath...
...was the Texas money manager for the bin Ladens.
Bush and Bath had become good friends...
...when they both served in the Texas Air National Guard.
After they were discharged...
...when Bush's dad was head of the CIA...
...Bath opened up his own aviation business after selling a plane...
...to a man by the name of Salem bin Laden...
...heir to the second-largest fortune in Saudi Arabia...
...the Saudi Binladin Group.
W. at that time was just starting off in the world as a businessman.
Because he's a guy who's always tried to emulate his father...
...he went into the oil business. He founded an oil company, Arbusto...
...which was very good at drilling dry holes that nothing came out of.
But the question has always been, "Where did this money come from?"
Now, his dad was rich. His dad could have done this for him...
...but his dad didn't do this for him.
There's no indication Daddy wrote a check to start him off in his company.
So where did George W. Bush get his money?
I'm George Bush.
One person who did invest in him was James R. Bath.
Bush's good friend, James Bath, was hired by the bin Laden family...
...to manage their money in Texas and invest in businesses.
And James Bath himself, in turn, invested in George W. Bush.
