...According to a recent Gallup poll, less than a third of Saudi's 28 million inhabitants approve of U.S. leadership, a sharp contrast to the close cooperation between the two nations' governments. The Saudi kingdom prohibits the study of evolution, Sigmund Freud, Karl Marx, Western music or Western philosophy in its universities, according to the U.S. State Department. The public practice of non-Muslim religions is prohibited, and the Shi'ite minority, which makes up 8% to 10% of the population, faces significant official discrimination...

Though he advocates abolishing income taxes in favor of a "consumption tax" and learning to buy secondhand, he isn't a utopian hippie radical either.

...very convincing," said Vladimir Vukcevic, Serbia's special war crimes prosecutor. "He looked like a cross between Sigmund Freud and a beat poet," says Goran Kojic, the editor of the Belgrade magazine Healthy Life, for which "Dr. Dabic" wrote a column. The endless, often vile dilations on the dangers of Islam and the suffering of the Serbs that Karadzic peddled during the war seem to have segued into a snake-oil sales pitch for "personal auras" and "vital energies...
