Does anyone remember when Saudi Arabia threatened to sue anyone online that compared them to ISIS? I do..
Do you remember when Ashraf Fayadh received the death sentence for apostasy? I do..
Although the sentence was overturned (most likely due to public outcry) he got an 8 year sentence and 800 lashes.. 800 lashes… In addition to his severe punishments he is forced to repent through an announcement in official media, 1984 style. Are we supposed to feel better about this? They probably think so. Should we? Hell no. The fact that Saudi Arabia continually violates human rights according to Amnesty International’s research is daunting. This is the same country that is allied with the US and UK.. The same country that is on the UN human rights panel, even though they execute people in brutal fashion, on public display at times, and for ludicrous reasons.
Do you realize that Saudi Arabia is comparable to ISIS? I do.. And you should too. 🙂
