Salman Awdah is an influential Saudi cleric,[1] who was among the first to call for the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Saudi Arabia[2] yet has also recently criticized al-Qaeda.[3] He was imprisoned between 1994 and 1999 for his role in the Sahwa movement - "fiercely critical of the Saudi royal family, infuriated by the American role in the first Gulf War, and one of the pioneers of the Islamist use of cassette sermons."[1] After a 2003 terrorist attack in Riyadh, [4] however, he relented his anti-jihad position and joined in the Saudi campaign against extremist opposition.
