Yet another defeat for the West... Saudi Arabia to take over Afghanistan

The title is not an exaggeration.... not by a long mile.  How extremely stupid of the Judeo-Christian nations to think that they can waltz into cavemen territory and ABRACADABRA the cavemen will lap up the "democracy" that's shoved down their throats and even beg for more.  The nation that should have been invaded by that blasted US Prez George "Islam is a religion of peace" Bush,  should have been Saudi Arabia, not Iraq.   Because of this one man's raw personal hatred of Saddam Hussein,  the world is now seeing a much more muscled Saudi Arabia.

All the thousands of brave young men and women who lost their lives in the unholy soil of Afghanistan, were sent there by the politicians of their countries who were foolish enough to think that democracy could be brought to a cage full of raging beasts.  Let's not forget that these young people were sent to a battleground with hands tied behind their backs  and told to make nice with the murdering locals ... who gleefully murdered and gloried at the falling infidels.

Saudi Arabia will build a massive Islamic centre complete with a university and a mosque in Afghanistan, an Afghan minister said Monday, describing the project as “grand and unique”.

Estimated to cost up to $100 million, the centre on a hilltop in central Kabul will house up to 5,000 students, Dayiul Haq Abed, the acting Hajj and religious affairs minister told AFP.

It will be named after Saudi King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz, the minister added.

“The agreement was signed last week in Jeddah. The construction will start next year, in couple of months or so,” Abed said.

The mosque, similar to the Faisal Mosque in Islamabad that was also built by Saudi Arabia in 1980s, will hold 15,000 worshippers at a time.

The minister said the centre will be run jointly by the Saudi and Afghan ministries of religious affairs. Other universities in Afghanistan are run by the higher education ministry.

Saudi Arabia was one of only three countries – along with Pakistan and the United Arab Emirates – that recognised the Taliban regime during its rule in Afghanistan from 1996-2001......
