Granted we're talking about nations and their peoples and their histories and they are always long, deep, and tangled up and there are no simple truths. I'm aware of the origins of Wahabism through The Arabs (Eugene Rogan). I was looking for individual perspectives than what's easily available online. I've also tried reading up on the animosity between Iran and Saudi, and couldn't find any straight answer.
