I think you will find these are British extremists, it's a bit much to blame Saudi if Britain is becoming a leading breeding ground for terrorism .
Report PorcupineorPineapple July 5, 2017 9:12 AM BST
lfc - doubtless the terrorists themselves are British but what the report is saying is that the mosques and radical clerics who are encouraging and motivating them are being funded by hard liners in Saudi.

Who could deny that it's vital that we look at the wider issues and don't just narrow down on the perp and the perp alone.
Report lfc1971 July 5, 2017 9:15 AM BST
Well if Britain allows a foreign and alien culture to flourish and be part of Britain that is not something that we can blame on Saudi.
Saudi would certainly not allow any such thing in their own country.

Obviously Trump's business interests in the country have no bearing on this even though of all the
countries on that list the Trump Organisation has not done business or pursued potential deals there.
Don't even think it, it is just coincidence Plain

Report detraveller July 5, 2017 9:51 AM BST
What a foreign country does should not be cause for concern. What your own govt does in response is what matters. And ours sleep with the saudis(but you can be proud they dont wear headscarf because its a sign of oppression and against western values).

In most countries led by dictators or powerful mafias, you will note that there always exists an outside enemy. For most its america of course but the reason why every govt wants its people to hate some foreign country is because then the people can't blame their own govt for their troubles. And that's how they rule.

We are no different. Our govts take every measure possible to destroy Europe while they do business with the very people they tell us to blame for our troubles. Who'd have thought our favorite muslim ally would be funding terrorism in Europe?

Is Saudi Arabia also responsible for the refugee crisis? It must also be the saudis that force Italian NGOs to rescue Libyan migrants? Must be the Saudis that would pay huge benefits to anyone who can cross into Europe? Must be the saudis that jail anyone for throwing bacon at someone but not for raping people?

Saudi Arabia..lovely country..currently bombing Yemen, won't see this on the mainstream news, might upset the house of Saud. The Muslims moving into Europe are not Wahhibis, they know if the move into Saudi they will be persecuted.

Ps, Iran or whatever its previous names were, has never invaded or started a war with another country..It is being lampooned because it is only 1 of 3 countries not run by world banks..North Korea and Cuba being the others.
