Salafists and Wahhabis consider themselves to be Sunni, and they are some of the only active armed Sunni non-state organizations outside Palestine. I qualify my previous statement that no Sunni or Arab state/group outside Palestine are a threat to the west. No Sunnis came to Gaza's aid, they were too busy targeting the west's enemies.
Fake Salafist Wahhabism consider themselves sunni LATER, as form of manipulation of Muslims since the initial Wahhabism was destroyed by the sultanate. In the same way, Hitler and Goebbels put the word
SOCIALISM in Hitler's party LATER to sell the idea that they were "socialists", this type of strategy is widely used.
Sunnism is a belief founded by Kunya
Abu Bakar al-siddiq and has as its pillars the belief in 4 holy kalifas (including ALI), tariqas (Abu Bakar himself founded several of them), mystical and supernatural beliefs, protection of the family of the prophet Muhammad, creation of Islamic schools of thought and much more... Sunnis created Islam as we know it today, including the Quran brought to the public (by Uthman) with chapters 20 years after Muhammad's death. Sunnism officially recognizes Shiites as Muslims. Now, fake Salafist Wahhabism has none of this, it has no holy kalifas, no interpretation of sharia, no supernatural, no ALI, it has NOTHING! It is a movement founded by Wahab(together with britain regime) who has a separate book from quran called "THE BOOK OF MONOTHEISM", with beliefs copied from Ibn Taymiyyah (a medieval theologian who had no importance in Islamic history until Wahhabism emerged) and a lot of oddities.
And there is more:
Danish traveler Carsten Niebuhr describes Wahhabis as deists in his “Beschreibung von Arabien” (“Description of Arabia”) (1772). According to Niebuhr, Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab did not believe that the Prophet Muhammad was a prophet – instead, he considered him a great scholar. In a report submitted to Napoleon Bonaparte while he was in Egypt, it was stated that Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab was a converted Jesuit !.
Wahhabism fake salafist is therefore a belief apart from Islam, a form of
"Middle Eastern Mormons". The original Sunnism considers them eretic(several fatwas have already been issued in this regard) and wahabists fake salafists also consider the original Sunnism eretic.
NOTE: Fake Salafist Wahhabi black ops groups like ISIS/Alqaeda Today HTS work together with Western anti-Islam secret services. See "israel" advancing in syria and wahabists fake salafists pretend nothing is happening. The USA, the British regime and Zionism work to replace the original Sunnis with this aberration called fake Salafist Wahhabism. Billions of dollars a year are invested in mosques to spread Wahhabism, now as a form of "Sunnism", to confuse muslims.
