Hypocrisy alert – King Abdullah warning about terrorism

Saudi Arabia’s King Abdullah warning the UN General Assembly about terrorism?

Until we have evidence this is about more than image-burnishing, including evidence that you’ve stopped financing Wahhabism both abroad (including in the U.S.) and at home, call me just a tad skeptical.

I’m not asking Abdullah to grovel and beg for forgiveness for his country’s primary part in contributing to terrorism. I am asking for more disclosure on what he’s doing now to stop contributing.
