For over forty years, the Saudis have sent out their Fundamentalist Muslim missionaries to spread their Wahabbi sect of Islam throughout the Mid East. They have constructed and staffed countless Madrassas (boarding schools/orphanages) and have provided a free education to any male who wished to attend. These Saudi funded Madrassas currently provide their pupils with a basic education that otherwise could never be furnished by their families or by their government. In addition to a basic education, Saudi Madrassas indoctrinate their pupils in fundamentalist Islam and are also taught to hate the United States and Israel. It was from these Saudi Madrassas that all of the September 11 attackers came. But not for Saudi funding, these mad men would still be in their desert hovels, abusing their women, buggering their livestock, and worshiping a God who has more in common with Satan, as found in the Old Testament, than he does with our God, the Father of Jesus.
What bugs me is this claim by leftists who claim t he Balkans form of Islam is tolerant vs the Saudi version. The Balkan Christians rose up against the barbarity of the Muslim Turks. Muslims are tolerant when they are not in power. As soon as Muslims have power they become intolerant.
