Saudi Arabia braces for threat
THE al Qaeda breakaway group that has captured Iraq’s biggest northern city is on a recruitment drive in Saudi Arabia.
The evidence showed up last month in Riyadh, where drivers woke up to find leaflets stuffed into the handles of their car doors and in their windshields. They were promoting the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), which has grabbed the world’s attention by seizing parts of northern Iraq. The militant group is also using social media to recruit young Saudi men.
