Saudi Arabia & Terror

The country of greatest danger to the US is Saudi Arabia, yet dt did not include this nation in his unconstitutional ban on travel from seven Muslim nations.

See this article in the NY Times in August of 2016:

Of the seven countries included in dt's travel ban, none has ever had a citizen execute a terror attack against the US.

Sayyid Qutb was the Egyptian thinker behind Islamist extremism taught in some parts of the Muslim world, especially in many schools in Saudi Arabia.  He was born in 1906 and died in 1966.

Here's a book on him:
