FORE NOTE:  After the 9/11 attacks, in which 15 of the 19 Muslim terrorists were Saudi Arabians, the Saudi Embassy of Washington hurried to produce a slick booklet entitled "Understanding Islam and the Muslims", which was available on-line and in printed form.  Below, we have reproduced verbatim the contents of the Saudi propaganda piece with a brief rebuttal of the information when deemed necessary.  We hereby gleefully and gratefully dedicate this section of our web-site to the Saudi Embassy, for having produced such a pathetic effort towards the promotion of Islam.
