Saudi Textbooks
There's been a story floating around about fundamentalist statements in Saudi Arabian school books. Clcik here for a discussion of the issue in an op-ed from USA Today. A non-profit called Freedom House has optained copies of Saudi textbooks and finds them outrageously unacceptable.

Interestingly, there's a response from the Saudi ambassador about the issue in USA Today. It's is well worth a read, but I'm curious if it will be translated into Arabic and appear in any of the Saudi state-run media outlets.
