The author stated in his presentation this week that it was the Iranian takeover by the CIA that ignited the opposition and found root in Saudi Arabia. If the author stated that he doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground. Absolute nonsense. That's not the way it started. He sounds like he is trying to blame everything on Kermit Roosevelt's success in stopping a Soviet takeover of Iran. Muhammad Ibn Abd al-Wahhab (1703-1792) joined forces with a tribal chief, Muhammad Ibn Saud, to lead a militant reform movement in Arabia. The "Muslim Brotherhood" in Egypt is the root of the problem. It is intertwined with the Wahhabis. Soon after the biggest calamity happened in 1924 with the collapse of the "Khilafa", and the declaration of war against all shapes of Islam in most of the Muslim countries, the Islamic "revival" entered into the movement phase in the middle east by establishing "Al-Ikhwan Al-Moslemoon" (Muslim Brotherhood) in Egypt, 1928 [1]. Sounds like you are still reading those leftist Authors that want to blame all the world's problems on the USA.
