Terrorists' gripe?

DP,

Since I trust only you on matters Islamist. Your knowledge, your judgement and your strategic skills, and not least, your willingness to put yourself at risk for the truth --would you tell me if I have it right --that US support for the Saudi 'royal' family's corrupt repressive Wahabbi sect is the reason we have raised the ire of militant terrorist Muslims?

I heard a guest on Batchelor's WABC late night radio last week insist very knowingly that the US is on the wrong side of a
problem within the Muslim world and have read somewhere that there are two strains of Islam at war with each other right now.

Best wishes --A. Lee Stewart
