Woolwich beheading: The West should review its ties with Saudi Arabia

LUBP: The beheading of a British soldier by two Salafis (also known as Wahhabis) outside Woolwich barracks is a very serious affair. These two assassins were inspired by the Salafi ideology financed by Saudi Arabia. That the assassins were shouting “Allah o Akbar!” as they slaughtered the soldier shows how ingrained the Salafi ideology has taken roots in a tiny but powerful minority of Muslims in the West.

The West should realize that the likes of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE have never been its friends in the War on Terror. The 9/11 and 7/7 terrorists were either Saudi Salafis or inspired by the Salafist ideology. This ideology has a Manichaean view of the world in which Salafism stands for good and the rest of the world stands for evil. It is the basic tenet of Salafism to convert the world to ‘good’ by persuasion or sword, whichever works quickly.

But unfortunately despite all the information available, no action has yet taken against the Salafis while all eyes are focused on Iran going ‘nuclear”.
