Should Iraq accept Saudi money?

Saudi Arabia is now offering $1 billion in aid to rebuild Iraq:
Saudi Arania's foreign minister said he is less worried that U.S. policies in Iraq will bring on a civil war there and pledged anew to contribute $1 billion for rebuilding that war-ravaged country's shattered infrastructure.
That is good news, but the question is, should Iraq accept it? It seems that with Saudi money comes Wahhabism. Iraq has enough divisions to worry about, does it want to worry about Wahhabism encroaching on the country from Saudi Arabia?
