Description:

A history of Islam that distinguishes its mainstream tradition of tolerance & pluralism from the radical offshoot that is now struggling for control of the whole Muslim world. The roots of Osama bin Laden's al-Qaida network are to be found in a puritanical variant of Islam known as Wahhabism. Traces the rise of the Wahhabis & their symbiotic bond with the House of Sa'ud. Wahhabism is an extreme & intolerant sect that became the official cult of the Saudi state. Details the vigorous program of ideological export of Wahhabism around the world financed & directed by the Saudis themselves over the past 50 years. Exposes Wahhabi-Saudi support for Hamas, & reveals that 80% of American mosques are under Wahhabi control.
