Here is an update from Fox News on the material that children in Saudi Arabia are being taught.

Why should we care about Saudi textbooks? As the article points out, this is how the future jihadists are being trained from the ground up. Keep in mind that 15 of the 19 9-11 hijackers were from Saudi Arabia. This is the country where the most fundamental of Islamic teaching, Wahhabism, is practiced.Also keep in mind that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, through all that oil money we send over there, finances the construction of mosques in the US, largely staffed by radical imams sent courtesy of guess who-Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Arabia is also the nation that spends millions upon millions of petro-dollars to establish Middle East studies programs in US universities, staffed by-you guessed it- radical professors who preach hatred against Israel-and in many cases our own country.
So we might ask ourselves; why are we so down on Israel for not caving into demands for negotiating with her adversaries when this kind of hatred towards Jews is being preached throughout the Arab world. The prose in the article was only partly stated: It goes to the Islamic hadith that states that on the Day of Judgement, the Jew will hide behind the trees and stones, and the trees and stones will call out to the Muslim, "There is a Jew hiding behind me. Come and kill him...."
We might also ask ourselves why we continue to rely on countries like Saudi Arabia for our oil needs, rather than develop more of our own. That means drilling in Alaska, and building that pipeline from Canada to Texas that Obama is so fiercely resisting because, "it needs more study".
What needs more study is what is coming out of Saudi Arabia and our long-term relationship with that nation.

How can Obama drill in Alaska, build a pipeline, or resume pumping oil in the Gulf, when he bows to the Saudi King.
Also, the Saudis fund terrorism. Read Rachel Erenfeld's book, "Funding Evil", to get a good handle on this topic.
The Saudi King promised to put a stop to the radical reading material, but it was not implemented. So much for trusting the Saudis.

We have one of those Muslim taught students right here on this blog. As I wrote on some other thread, they are taught this hatred from childhood. Their position stiffens even more when facts and reason challenge their preconceived beliefs. They refuse to process it because cognitive dissonance is so painful.
If they stopped teaching hate today, it might take a hundred years to clean out their tribal educational system. It is based on jealousy and failure to understand why all other societies succeed while all theirs continue to fail, despite all the oil wealth they have.
Their obsession with Israel is a phenomenon to behold. It is absolutely impossible for them to put any perspective on the problem. They are quick to embrace any and every cockamamie threadbare theory that could conceivably cast mud on the Jews or Israel. They are absolutely blind to their own guilt or failures. I suppose this is for reasons of pride. They can't ever admit an error or anything like that. This is even when there are pre-suicide videos taken themselves by Muslim terrorists. I imagine the refusal to admit guilt or any dimunition is an ongoing aspect of Bedouin culture.
