The Wahhabi Code: How the Saudis Spread Extremism Globally

Lifting the mask of international terrorism, Terence Ward reveals a sinister truth. Far from being "the West's ally in the War on Terror," Saudi Arabia is in reality the largest exporter of Wahhabism, the severe, ultra-conservative sect of Islam that is both Saudi Arabia's official religion and the foundation for international terror groups such as ISIS, Al-Qaeda, the Taliban, and Boko Haram, and the Saudi regime has created a well-oiled machine dedicated to building schools and funding programs throughout the Middle East that promote it. To the end of further expanding their influence, these efforts have now been focused on European cities, as well. The front lines of the War of Terror aren't a world away; they're in our own backyard.

Raised in Saudi Arabia before spending much of his life working in the Middle East, Terence Ward gives his unique insight to the culture of extremism, its rapid expansion, and how it can be stopped.
