The Trojan Horse of Wahhabism
(Tech Central Station) Stephen Schwartz - The Dutch Moroccan who murdered van Gogh attended a mosque purchased in 1999 with a 1.5 million euro loan from the Saudi charity Al Haramain Islamic Foundation, which has since been designated by the U.S. and Saudi governments as an organization providing financial, material, and logistical support to al-Qaeda. Besides the Netherlands, Al Haramain formerly had offices in Bosnia-Herzegovina and Albania, which have since been closed. An employee of the Tirana office was implicated in the murder of a senior official of Albania's moderate Muslim community. What makes a Wahhabi mosque so dangerous? First, Wahhabi preaching and teaching is fundamentalist, indoctrinating young and old in hatred, contempt, and distrust of Jews, Christians, and non-Wahhabi Muslims. Second, it will propagandize in favor of violence in Iraq, Israel, and Chechnya. Wahhabi mosques serve as centers for the collection of money and dissemination of extremist literature, including the "Saudi edition of Qur'an," a revised version of the Islamic scripture with insertions and distortions that make it an extremist document.
