Did I just see that saudi arabia just voted to allow women to vote and hold political office ?!
But, women still have can't drive, wear modern clothes or be alone in public and can face any type of corporal punishment their family deems fit for any sharia transgression.
Talk about a great leap in progress.

The real rat's nest of subversive politics in the middle east since 1947. We should have invaded and beat them into submission instead of Iraq.  Inhabited by some of the most ruthless and despised upright cretins on the planet; the ultimate in actual heart hatred of the West as you can find. I'm all for starting the bombing campaign against Isis there.

I think it's going to many generations before that part of the world becomes civilized.

But those people seem to be stuck in the dark ages.

I looked up the site you linked and found this "Political Vel Craft is a website hosting the paranoid ravings of a Minnesota-based Teabagger lunatic in the form of green ink articles and a blog. The proprietor's favorite conspiracies seem to be ones of the Obamunist, birther, Illuminati, New World Order, Federal Reserve, chemtrail, and international Jewish varieties. The site is also ragingly racist and promotes bigotry of all kinds, including homophobia, Islamophobia and anti-Semitism."

Anyone that knows any American history knows that President Jefferson got tired of paying 'tribute' to muslim pirates and declared war against them as soon as he took office.

I think it's going to many generations before that part of the world becomes civilized. Why do 'we' continue to think that other countries should think as 'we' do. Pretty smug of us isn't it. ' That part of the world' thinks it is civilized. To them we are the uncivilized. My its just me, but, thats my take on it. And I'm sticking to it.

I dunno, a country that embraces a culture that would have a woman that is forcibly gang raped held criminally responsible for the rape because she might not have been properly covered up pretty much would qualify for the uncivilized title. Kinda my take on it.

Trust me, there is almost NOTHING civilized about them ! Among other things, Saudi Arabia is the greatest argument that exists in the world for separation of Church and State. Islam rules there and women's rights mean absolutely NOTHING !

I could not get into that place if my passport has an entry stamp from Israel Fact
Its one of 16 moslem countries that do not allow any Israeli entry
Talk about prejudice............. yeah right spare me the righteous bull$hit about how these poor people may no longer be able to get into the USA. Nobody is trying to kill them where they are.
where is Obama or Hillary or Sanders or any of them speaking out about the double standard? Oh yeah thats right they dont give a damn
