You just mentioned the two countries that are the leaders of the Islamist movement, and whose antagonism toward one another drives the movement. KSA didn't start exporting Wahabism until the Islamic Revolution. The political ideology of Islamism is the problem.

That doesn't make one sect worse than the other. There is a race between the Saudis and the Muslim Brotherhood to spread their form of Islam and you are seeing the fruits of their labor right now. The "refugee crisis" is speeding up that process.
