Top Saudi Cleric’s Call to ‘Destroy Churches’ by Patrick
Goodenough:
Ten
days after Saudi Arabia’s foremost religious leader called for a
demolition of all churches in the Arabian Peninsula – in line with
a purported injunction by Mohammed – the U.S. government and other
allies of the kingdom have yet to react.
Major
media outlets also have largely ignored the incident; a Nexis search
finds reporting on the issue has been restricted to blogs and opinion
columns, including a Washington Times editorial
on
March 16.
On
March 12, Grand Mufti Sheikh Abdul Aziz Al-Asheikh was quoted in
Arabic media reports as telling a visiting Kuwaiti delegation that it
was “necessary to destroy all the churches of the region.”
