Wahabbists are as Muslim as Evangelicals are Christian.

They mean Israel.

Wahabbists are largely hated in the Muslim world by both sunnis and shia once you get out of SA, UAE & Turkey. The idea of Wahabbism wasn't what it is now.

A lot of bad things that happened in the last 40 years could easily be linked to them.

On top of my head:

  • Sudan starvation
  • Yemen starvation
  • The black decade/terrorism in Algeria
  • Terrorism in Europe, US & Russia
  • Terrorism in Syria (Yazidis mass rape of under age girls, slaughter by HTS/ISIS)
  • Terrrorism in large parts of Sahel region of Africa (with mass rape & mass slaughter)
  • ...

My brain hurst when I read that HTS members admitting they are receiving large support from the US. Or one of the Baghdadi wives heading home in the UK after he got killed.
