Law26 that was a very simplistic veiw.
The title Wahabi/Salafi is misleading becuase they vary greatly in opinion as well.

It may seem that the saudi state appointed and supported religous establishment is like the vatican and pope, and that they issue canons and edicts as they please while thier follower obey.

I know of many people some family members that you will think of as salafi but everyone of them despises the Saudi establishment,

whatever name they may have.

What is your point? Are you denying there are Somalis who don't believe in wahabism aka salafism? Or, are you saying that Saudi authorities haven't spent billions of dollars to market their own brand of wahabism among Muslims in Muslim countries and Muslims in the west? As a whole, wahabism have collapsed like a pack of cards soon after post 9/11, and were divided those who became loyal jihadists and supported Ossama and went in bed with the likes of Al-Zawahiri, a qutbist who belongs to Islamic brotherhood, and others who maintain the Saudi line and echo the Saudi line. They never had a coherent school of thought and that is why we see nowadays that their divission is growing like weeds in a neglected garden.

With all this amount of hate toward your Muslim brethren, you are not doing any good for Islam or Muslims. If you want to change, change your attitude first to Islamic attitude. You are not any different from Salafis or Wahabis you calling them. I have to deal with them everyday in the Islamic court and in university here. They are just extremists like you. I don’t see how you're better than them.

You're upset because they controling by their money your Somali people. Why you don't educate your people instead insulting others? If you have problem with house of Saud, Osamah and many others like my self do have problem with House of Saud but with defferent reasons. What is yours? If they stop bombering so called Somali religious leaders with their money, would you have been fine with them?
