Iran had allowed the 9/11 hijackers to pass through its territory without marking their passports as they traveled from Afghanistan to the United States. Had the passports been marked, the hijackers would have been detained for questioning or denied entry completely. Since the Islamic regime came to power in 1979 it has been at war with the Saudi ruling monarchy, and was in league with Osama bin laden's overall objective to remove the Saudi ruling clan. The 9/11 Commission errantly attributed some complicity to the Saudi government, rather than opposition to the Saudi ruling regime with Saudi Arabia.
