http://www.foxnews.com/world/2015/0...may-now-face-death-penalty/?intcmp=latestnews they may kill a guy for "apostacy". how is this any worse than ISIS? seems to me, Saudi Arabia is just a polite version of ISIS
The only difference is that one of them is given money and arms for their oil. Right now in Mecca they are throwing gays off of rooftops. This is why we need to drill for more oil in the Americas. Let the Middle East sink of swim on their own for a change.
The only difference is that ISIS wants to dominate the Muslim world through military conquest, while Saudi Arabia wants to dominate the Muslim world by influencing Muslims. Also, inb4 Margot starts defending the Saudis.
The Saudis are good Muslims. I would like to see Israel and the Saudis work together to exterminate the Iranian Terrorists. Iran is a clear and present danger to the Civilized World and its IslamoTerror must and will be terminated. The Iranian and Syrian leadership are Terrorists and are legitimate military targets. By getting these targets, the Civilized World will be a safer place. God bless USA and Israel. We must hold our noses and work with the Saudi IslamoMuslims in order to destroy the Iranian IslamoTerror.
As I said, we gotta hold our noses and work with these Saudi IslamoMuslims. It serves the bigger cause of destroying Iranian Islamoterror.
The ranking is as follows, from best to worst: Saudi IslamoMuslims ISIS IslamoTerrorists Iranian IslamoTerrorists The first target for termination are the Iranian IslamoTerrorists, and we gotta work with the Saudis on this. Once Iranian Terror is terminated, we should nuke ISIS. And only then, should we get the Saudis who oppose the heroic Saudi regime.
They don't throw gays off rooftops in Mecca. Mecca has a thriving gay community that is largely ignored. - - - Updated - - - Prove it oh tiresome one.
I stand corrected, ISIS was group throwing them off rooftops. Iran is the country that was hanging them. Its hard to keep track of which Muslim country is persecuting minority groups and how they are doing it. Saudi Arabia just outlaws being gay and imprisons them.
They are only ignored if they stay in the closet. They stay in the closet because they'd be killed for coming out.
From the Italian perspective I could say something. Italy has got a long and fruitful commercial cooperation with Saudi Arabia and the surrounding states. We buy oil from them and they invest in Italy [today some quarters of Milan belong to this or that emir and some very important Italian brands are actually Arab, Valentino, just to mention one]. Saudi Arabia import a lot of made in Italy and Saudi regime shows a friendly attitude towards our country. I personally had experience with those countries, traveling, and sure an Italian is treated better in Saudi Arabia than in UK [if you don't meet Indian officers at London Heathrow. In that case the treatment is comparable! English don't like Italians ... this is quite known ... but it's true also the other way round ...]. I guess this is why I usually just pass through UK to reach Scotland ... but this is a different tale. No, today Saudi Arabia is a valuable and precious ally to face terrorism and in perspective to face Iran.
They work , go to school, socialize, shop.. just like normal people. You know there are thousands of Americans raising families there and they love it.. Matthew Sheppard wasn't murdered in Saudi Arabia if you recall..
Wow, never thought we'd ever see eye to eye on anything. Yes, Saudi Arabia is a polite version of ISIS. Well said.
The Saudi women are very pleased to have beautiful clothing from Milan in their shops and boutiques. - - - Updated - - - How long did you say that you were in KSA?
If they admit that they're gay, they'll be taking an axe to the back of their neck pretty soon afterwards. Irrelevant. In no small part due to the fact that he never set foot in Saudi Arabia.
Gays in Arabia also have parents and siblings who love them... not unlike in the US.. Matthew Shepard grew up in Arabia.. His family worked for SAUDI ARAMCO and he attended HS at TASIS in Lugano.
My mistake. Still, the fastest way to turn an ally against you is to start killing their citizens. The Saudis are despots, but they are also intelligent.
And Italians find it nice to go to KSA or UAE, it's not difficult to find a good Italian restaurant in Riyadh, I suggest "Rossopomodoro".
