The insanity that is Saudi Arabia

[werepossum]

One of the thousands of Saudi royals is currently in the sentencing phase in the UK for murdering his manservant. If he returns to his native Saudi Arabia he faces a possible death sentence - NOT for literally beating his manservant to death, but for accusations of homosexuality which, by Sharia, still carries a penalty of death. So no matter how screwed up our countries seem to be, we can at least look at Saudi Arabia and feel better. There but for the Grace of G-d go I.

In court the prince's lawyers tried to cover up evidence of Al Saud's homosexuality.

If he ever returns to his home country he faces the possibility of execution - not because of the murder, but because being gay is a capital offence in Saudi Arabia.

Sharia - proving you can be a rich country and still be a hell on Earth.

Our Middle Eastern allies are barbarians (except for Oman, Turkey, and Israel).

Sounds like the Saudis believe homosexuality is biological.

I wonder why. But then those countries regard Israel as the barbaric as well, with the U.S as its biggest supporter.

Yes, they are the reason.

If you don't know why, try a google.

I can't believe you made that an "either/or" question. I can only assume you don't read his posts. LOL

Techs is out of his depth in a puddle.

It's a good thing they (Saudi) are on the UN Human Rights committee and can send themselves a strongly worded message....
