I've read a fair amount on ISIS and its ideological origins,and many (most?) sources credit Wahabiism - and yes! I am aware that in country it is seen as derogatory. I just NEVER see anything political on here, even in passing...and it gets me wondering.I am headed for that country, and am trying to prepare myself.The teaching bit, you can(should) control, the other...heck no!

Cheers, Willie

That's because this type of subject isn't allowed on the forum.

What are your specific concerns? Lots of expats, including single women like myself, manage just fine in KSA's conservative culture.

check out the film Bitter Lake on the BBC iPlayer.

I wonder if this will be the last post before this thread is locked. Wink
