It would be nice if Saudi Arabia could tone down the Sharia law but I guess the enemy of my enemy is my friend and we have to deal with helping Saudi Arabia defeat Isis and contain Hezbollah which is run by Iran.

The problem is that the Jihadists are not the enemies of the Saudii's, they are a product of the decades of Wahhabi outreach. they have been selling the kind of fundamentalist Islam that created ISIS for decades.

I believe that Saudi Arabian fundamentalism started growing in the 19th century. Strange that I once worked with a Catholic Palestinian supervisor at an old department store his name was Gus Wahab and I found out or first heard about Wahhabism back then in 1982.

LTC (Join to see) Hezbollah (Party of God) Yeah when you claim to have a Religious Monopoly on "God" You and I are Probably Not Going to "Get Along" Same goes for Wahabism (Islamic Southern Baptist) Yeah You Incorporate Religion into Your Politics to Claim Some "Higher Calling" "Higher Justification" for what Usually is Pretty Vile Behavior, I have a Problem with that. Be it Islamic, Judaic, Christian Theocracies just don't cut it with Me. Way to much Evil is Conducted in the Name of "God".
