<P>I disagree with Carool postion with respect to Mr. Schwartz book.&nbsp; I found the book to be overall an accurate and fair assessment of the pernicious elements of wahhabism and the havoc it has wreacked on the Islamic world.&nbsp; He has performed a great service by highlighting the great disparity between these TWO faces of Islam. And by doing so, has shed some much needed light on the mainstream tradition of of a tolerant Islam.&nbsp; If he was a Muslim, I would have accussed him of being too polite.&nbsp; To quesiton his credibility and motives, is I think inspired more by the fact that he is not a muslim, then that he is lacking on either accounts.&nbsp; <BR><BR></P></DIV>
