Intelligent comment and facts but conclusions are ,in my oppinion,entirely wrong!
Wretchard,religion is not about money but about faith and beliefs.You don`t need a monumental mosques or churches to preach fundamentalist Islam/Christianity.History has prooved that to all of us.
House of Saud might be the sponsor of Wahhabists but,not the only one.You can bring them down,occupy the whole country and...face a massive backlash,out of control.In the meantime,its easier to allow them to infest Europe by destroying their enemies(your natural allies and friends).
Come to think of it,I can`t stop wandering,if your (American) leaders and Presidents have any morals at all!3000 American citizens were killed by 19 Saudi citizens and what do you do??You bomb a piss poore Afganistan!And now,you will with no reason at all appart from personal wendeta("He annoyed my daddy long time ago!")attack and bucher Iraq!
If you really care for the victims of 9/11 with all the might you have,you should arrest the families off all Saudis involved in that terrorist act,arrest the whole Bin-Laden family,burn their company to the ground,kill al their goats and donkeys,and freze all their assets.Permanently!Than,do the same thing with Pakistani leadership until they deliver Osama`s head .That is what a moral man would do,rightfuly so,and had support of 90% of the world.
Instead,"Attack Iraq,Osama`s and Saudis enemy!Axis of Evil???"What a bunch of bolocks.
3000 lives lost for what?So that Bruce Willis can win against Denzel Washington?If you don`t understand watch "The Siege".
When your leadership shows such contempt for your own citizens,I understand why they show utter contempt for anyone else!
Good luck with "forging alliances" with other brands of Islam.But,please,don`t showe it down our throaths!Like,"You must accept Turkey in EU"!!!!!
Turkey is as European as China!I would choose Chenese,any time!
