The Boston Globe has an interesting article about the links
between Al Qaeda and the Salafist school of Islam, e.g.
> The Salafist school is a fiery puritanical form of Islam that seeks to
> restore what its believers see as the true essence of an Islamic
> society, including the reestablishment of a caliphate and the imposition
> of Islamic law.
I don't see anything in the article suggesting that the Salafist
school is originating Saudi Arabia. The problem is distributed
over a wide geographical area, it is a grudge match and it isn't
going to go away anytime soon.
