Ugh, that's awful but pretty standard for that place. I hear a lot of stories about Saudi Arabia from military friends who have spent some time there. It may be a fairly wealthy nation, but it is NOT a nice place.

It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

Yes. Unfortunately the world only seems to care when it happens to Westerners.

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

You'd think the worlds rapists would have cottoned on to the fact they could move there and rape with impunity, but I guess if it's effectively permitted that would kinda spoil their fun. Either that, or it's too uncivilized even for the rapists.

'uncivilized' being one of those weird concepts to use in regards to an Islamic area . . .

I disagree with you.
I don't think Donald Trump would ever try and change the laws of America to resemble anything like this type of sharia where victims of rape are arrested.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.

I have a friend who is a helicopter mechanic. He worked in Saudi Arabia for a couple of years. Good money, but he never left the "American Compound". He's never going back; he tells me it is a real shit hole. Dubai doesn't look any better, from here.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
