Hatred's Kingdom: How Saudi Arabia Supports the New Global Terrorism

by Dore Gold

Overview

Dore Gold has the goods on Saudi Arabia, proving how it is actively supporting terrorism. Using previously unpublished documents, Gold, former Israeli Ambassador to the UN and internationally known Middle East strategy expert, pieces together the links between the current wave of global terrorism -- from the World Trade Center to Bali, Indonesia -- and the ideology of hatred taught in the schools and mosques of Saudi Arabia.

Editorial Reviews

Indispensable reading.”

Jeffrey Gedmin

You won’t find the newly published Hatred’s Kingdom in any Saudi bookshop, but it is so much in demand among high officials that the government has brought out a reprint of its own.”

Guardian (London)

Hatred’s Kingdom is a chilling, and very timely book.”

Large Print Reviews

If you read one book to understand the roots of al-Qaeda’s fury and the hostility to us within the Muslim world, it should be this—Dore Gold’s superbly told history of the Wahhabis.”

former director of the CIA James Woolsey

[May] reads with a calm that allows the listener to concentrate on the material, which offers a fascinating, seldom heard perspective on the history and growth of terrorism.”
