Correction Australian FM regarding Wahhabism and Sufism
Reader comment on item: Canberra Leads the Way, Vetoes Saudi Funds for Mosque

Submitted by J. Scotte Barkan (United States), Nov 30, 2007 at 21:51

I just wanted to point out a correction regarding the comment made by Australian Foreign Minister Alexander Downer about Saudi Arabia, "which is the heartland of Wahhabism and Sufism...", I believe he meant to say "Wahhabism and Salafism".
