This rise of extremist Islam in the Maldives (notice is was the Salafists who infiltrated there, over time), has severe implications for the US and Britain re the Indian Ocean and infiltration of eastern Africa.
This “stealth jihad” has now surfaced all over Africa, the Indian Ocean, and Asia Minor.
How’s that “Hope and Change” and Cairo speech working for you, Obama? Hillary? Rice?
As long as the Saudis and Iranians provide money for extremists, there will be an endless supply of extremists.
The Salafists exist as subsidized agents of the Saudis. Cut off Saudi subsidies, make it necessary for these imams and "activists" to actually WORK for a living, and the extremism would be much reduced.
