The Saudi's didn't like it when the terrorists started bombing in their country either. You're probably right.

By forcing the mosques to read the same sermon, the Islamicists will have no way to get their message out!

There is no organized clergy in Islam, so they informally refer to themselves as Imam or Alim (basically calling themselves scholars or learned men). Many areas have evolved their own religious heirarchy, such as the Taliban or the Ayllatolahs, but Islam by doctrine isn't supposed to acknowledge that any man knows God any better than the next.

Thanks for sharing the info!
