Former U.N. ambassador John Bolton called the new Saudi 9/11 bill “a hoax on the victims’ families” in an interview on Sunday’s New York AM 970 radio show “The Cats Roundtable.”

“The consequences of this legislation is going to be more harmful to the United States in the big picture because other governments that are eager to get to us and our diplomats, our military people, our intelligence agents — let’s not conceal that — are going to take comparable or worse steps to limit America’s sovereign immunity,” Bolton told host John Catsimatidis.

“I just think this is actually a hoax on the victims’ families,” he continued. “They’re not going to get any recompense for the loss of their loved ones. They’re not going to find out really what happened on 9/11 any more than we already know.”
