This process tends not to be a good at the best of times. I'm beginning to think that the neocons - with all their lies for the little people to believe in, - have basically arrogated this process to themselves. So looking at it this way - the Saudis have exploited the awful tendency amongst Muslims too see themselves as the best of the pack ( a manifestation of self doubt if there ever was one) - and used it to garner and extend support. But their take is just so negative - how can you pick all other Muslims to shreds like this so mercilessly, with such alacrity, and never mention the follies of "The Rulers"? People are eventually going to see through it - or flip. They have seriously messed with peoples heads.
