The license that MI6 gave to Agent 007 has been sanctioned by a Govenment to the practicioners of their own deviant version of an otherwise peaceful and mainsteam religion.

In this very tragic case of life imitating Art (for the lack of a better analogy), all our worst nightmares are indeed coming true. The sad question is, WHAT THE HECK are we doing about it. In our addiction to cheap oil, we are willing to turn a blind eye and bury our collective heads in the sand.

It is NOT enough to cut off the tentacles of the Hydra, you have to aim for the head and take it out, GET IT?

NO OF PAGES: 335 SUB CAT I: Terrorism SUB CAT II: SUB CAT III: DESCRIPTION: In the global search for culprits and causes in the rise of terrorism, former Israeli ambassador to the United Nations Dore Gold shines a spotlight on a nation many think of as a close ally of the United States: Saudi Arabia. As he explains in Hatred?s Kingdom: How Saudi Arabia Supports the New Global Terrorism, Gold believes that the Saudi government is greatly influenced by the Islamist sect known as Wahhabism and, he explains, that influence has lead to Saudi support of terrorism in the Middle East, Europe, the United States and around the world. The historical portion of Gold?s argument, where he traces the emergence of Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab and the changing face of Saudi leadership, is admirably extensive and detailed. His modern research is a little more uneven, relying on statements by various Muslim clergy members, letters to the editors of newspapers, opinion pieces, and other evidence that is rarely damnable. Curiously, mentions of Israel and the long-standing Arab-Israeli conflict are much more infrequent than one would expect from an Israeli diplomat and scholar. But regardless of one?s opinion of Gold?s research or his alarming conclusions, the book offers something not often found in modern political nonfiction: a coherent structure, exhaustive research, and a clear and consistent perspective on the ongoing threat of terrorism.NOTES: Purchased from the Amazon MarketPlace. SUBTITLE: How Saudi Arabia Supports the New Global Terrorism

An excellent look at the history of the Wahhabi branch of Islam from the beginnings until the present day. Goes into great detail about how Saudi government and extreme Wahhabi religious leaders are very closely intertwined. Saudi Arabia has been a leading exporter of extremist thought which in turn influences those it touches, particularly within their own country, who go out and join terrorist organizations to fight jihad. Our time will come when we have to make the decision whether we cut the head off the serpent or allow it to destroy us. Read this book and get the real story about what is going on. ( )
