FOR TWENTY YEARS, WE FOUGHT AND LOST A WAR AGAINST THE TALIBAN. THAT WORD TALIBAN MEANS STUDENTS. YOUNG MEN LEARNING FROM TEACHERS.
THE TEACHERS OF THE TALIBAN ARE CALLED WAHABEES BECAUSE THEY TEACH THE DOCTRINE OF WAHAB. HE WAS A SCHOLAR WHO LIVED IN SAUDI ARABIA YEARS AGO. WAHAB TAUGHT HIS FOLLOWERS TO KILL, TORTURE, OR ENSLAVE ANYONE WHO DISAGREED WITH HIS STRICT VERSION OF THEIR RELIGION.
THE SAME WAHABEE SCHOOLS THAT TEACH THE TALIBAN ALSO TAUGHT AL QAIDA AND THE ISLAMIC STATE KNOWN AS ISIS.
THE OLDEST WAHABEE SCHOOL IS IN DEOBAND, INDIA. THERE ARE THOUSANDS MORE IN NEIGHBORING PAKISTAN. THEY ARE LAVISHLY FUNDED BY SAUDI ARABIA AND PAKISTAN.
HOW COULD WE WIN A WAR AGAINST THE TALIBAN, OR STUDENTS, IF OUR FRIENDS AND ALLIES WERE THEIR TEACHERS? THE PEOPLE TEACHING THEM TO HATE AND KILL US?
