Synopsis

In this New York Times bestseller, Middle East expert Dore Gold provides the startling evidence of how Saudi Arabia not only is linked to terror but in fact has spawned the current wave of global terrorism. Using previously unpublished documents, Gold, the former Israeli ambassador to the United Nations, exposes how the deeply ingrained hatred that has provoked the new terrorism has its roots in Saudi Arabias dominant religious creed, a radical Islamic offshoot known as Wahhabism.Through meticulous research, Dore Gold connects the dots, tapping into his rich knowledge of the history of the Middle East and his years of handson diplomatic experience. He also shows what is being overlooked in the current war on terror. As Gold stunningly reveals, unless the United States and its allies change their approach and cast a cold eye on supposed partner Saudi Arabia, the war on terror will not be won. It will be only a matter of time before another Osama bin Laden emerges.

This was an excellent book through most of it - it explains and details how the Saudis have been major supporters of terrorism not just against the West but against other Muslims as well.
