All while Saudi children textbooks continue to teach hatred of all things non-Islamic. “Saudi king to attend November UN interfaith dialogue,” from the Associated Press, October 26:
The Saudi king said that he would attend a meeting at the United Nations in New York in November that will discuss his initiative to promote interfaith dialogue.
King Abdullah said that it is the duty of every human being to support such dialogue.
In remarks made late Saturday, the king said that extending Muslims’ hands to non-Muslims will help “purify” the reputation of Islam at a time when the world is criticizing the faith.
Abdullah helped bring together Jews, Muslims, Christians, Hindus and Buddhists among other religions at a conference hosted by Spain in July.
