The lawsuit against the Saudis and Others is tantamount to putting Extremist Islam of the wahabis/Salafis on trial!

Do the Saudis have a chance defending itself or the teachings of its extremist version of Islam that clearly preaches hate & intolerance?

Visualize this
==============
The first question asked during the trial is:

Can the defendants (saudis) pls explain how Wahabi/Salafi Islam stands for Peace in its teachings & practise?

Their (Saudi) lawyers would plead the 5th or decline to comment as that would incriminate them!

Simply put, there is no-way, they - the Saudis can prove -what they follow as religion of Islam stands for Peace!

I kid you not!

Pls refer to the following link to understand the above context:

WASHINGTON, Aug 15: More than 500 people who lost loved ones in the September 11 attacks are to file a civil suit on Thursday against Sudan, Muslim-run charities, members of the Saudi royal family and several other groups they accuse of helping to finance the Al Qaeda , sources close to the families said.

The suit by an organization called "9/11 families united to bankrupt terrorism" is also aimed at Osama bin Laden and the Taliban. In addition, it targets seven international banks, eight Muslim-run charities, several financiers and three Saudi princes - Mohammed al-Faisal al-Saud, Turki al-Faisal al-Saud and Sultan bin Abdul Aziz al-Saud.

Seeking 1,000 trillion dollars in damages from the groups and one trillion dollars from the individuals, the plaintiffs endeavor to "force the sponsors of terror into the light and subject them to the rule of law", according to the suit that was filed in a federal court here on Thursday.
