Saudi Arabia is a country named after the ruling family. And the founding of Islam. Islamists hated the ruling family. The two came to heads a few generations ago, when Wahabbism reared its head. Wahabbism is the worst form of Islam, revolving around sharia law.
So they made a deal: Wahabbists can spread their backwards brand of islam outside the country, but not inside. It is an uneasy truce. Leave the ruling Saudi structure alone; spread your 7th century lunacy elsewhere around the world.
The Muslim Brotherhood is the head of the Wahabbist movement. CAIR, etc., reports to them. The Muslim Brotherhood established beachheads around the world, including the US, to spread sharia law and its philosophy of Wahabbism.
Tons of cash is behind the Muslim Brotherhood, to build mosques and schools, fund elections, wage lawfare, etc. And they embedded people in power structures, such as John Brennan and Valjar, and their sycophants like Ben Roades and the Washington Post. Lots of the money came via Prince AlWaleed and buddies.
MBS got with Jared Kushner and together they decided to stop the spread. AlWaleed and buds were arrested, wealth confiscated, and read the riot act. Funding for the Muslim Brotherhood is drying up. This drives the Wahabbists nuts, in the US and elsewhere. So MBS (and Kushner) must be stopped.
Khashoggi was a Muslim Brotherhood guy, against MBS.
Leaks are from Brennan and team still embedded.
Thank you to all who responded.
Baskets response is one of several accurate assessments.
