Archaeology Wahhabi Style, History Evicted for Profits……..






However, they will be shocked to see the Kaaba completely surrounded by high-rise hotels and shopping malls owned by princes. The Saudis have destroyed all the historic sites around Mecca. It is a similar story in Medina, where five-star hotels are the symbol of pomp and luxury erected by the princes. This systematic destruction of Muslim history…….

Turks during the Ottoman rule had meticulously excavated and preserved all the historic sites from the house of Prophet Muhammad and the first mosque built. The Ottoman historians not only established the landmarks of the prophet's life, but also preserved the architectural structures. This systematic campaign to wipe out all traces of the life and times of the prophet of Islam, his family and companions, is not merely the result of greed for money, but also of a distorted belief system. The problem is the Saudis' interpretation of Islam; they are opposed to the preservation of the old historic structures due to belief that some Muslims, in their ignorance, would be overcome with love and awe that historic sites may invoke, leading to idolatrous thoughts………… The cultural vandalism in the destruction of Mohammed's birthplace is indicative of a profound ignorance of history, art, heritage and beauty………..” SaudiWave
