OUR FRIENDS, THE SAUDIS

Christians Still "Swine" and Jews "Apes" in Saudi Schools - Harry de Quetteville
Freedom House, a non-partisan American research group which monitors civil rights worldwide, has found that despite promises of change from leading Saudi officials, schoolbooks in the kingdom still promote hatred of those who do not practice its strict form of Wahhabi Islam. The report quotes the following exercise for the youngest children: "Fill in the blanks with the appropriate words (Islam, hellfire): Every religion other than --- is false. Whoever dies outside of Islam enters ---." (Telegraph-UK)
