This is what “blood for oil” really means. The Saudi hand reached into Europe and made sure its defenses were down. The Spanish dhimmis, displaying the indomitable spirit of 3/11, willingly played toady, as long as the oil kept coming. From AP, with thanks to LGF:
MADRID, Spain – The Spanish government deliberately ignored a mosque known for fundamentalist preachings and frequented by suspects in the Madrid train bombings because the facility was financed by Saudi Arabia, an academic expert testified Wednesday.
Spanish authorities knew for years the city’s largest mosque, the Islamic Cultural Center, adhered to the Wahabi fundamentalist movement sponsored by Saudi Arabia, Islam expert Jesus Nunez told a commission investigating the March 11 bombings.
Authorities did nothing to monitor the mosque because Saudi Arabia provides Spain with oil, Nunez said.
“Until now the West in general — and Spain as part of it — closed its eyes to what Wahabism means as a rigorous doctrine that violates human rights,” said Nunez, who runs a Madrid think tank called the Institute of Studies on Conflicts and Humanitarian Action.
