There is a documentary from the BBC by Adam Curtis

which claims that during the Quincy Agreement (on Bitter Lake), the US was given access to Saudi Oil on the agreement that the then King/Sheik, and I presume successor, could spread Wahabism through the area.
A dissemination of such ideas, one could argue , being a primary reason of the current ME conflict.
Apart form Curtis's theory, I have not been able to find proof that this indeed was the negotiating position.
I was wondering if any historians here might shed some light.
Thank you
