That’s the message from Saudi Arabia. Do not meddle in their internal affairs.
If they want to lop off heads, leave them alone. If they want to flog their apostates, what’s that to you? And if they want to shred the hands of people reading the Bible, at least they’re not your hands.
So shut up.
Canadian officials heard that message loudly when they decided to criticize Saudi Arabia for torturing a blogger, Raif Badawi, with 1,000 lashes for criticizing the kingdom’s religious clerics.
The Saudi ambassador told Canada’s National Assembly that his country “does not accept any form of interference in its internal affairs.”
Sweden tried the same thing. Its foreign minister described the flogging of Badawi as a “cruel attempt to silence modern forms of expression.”
Sweden got the same royal treatment. Saudi Arabia stomped its feet in the sand and called the criticism a “flagrant interference in internal affairs.”
We out here in the free world should all get it. Don’t try swimming in the sands of Saudi Arabia.
Then why should we pay any attention to a Saudi attempt to meddle in our affairs?
Last month the Saudi director-general for external relations called on all nations – yes, all nations – to adopt laws banning “blasphemy.”

“If we want send a few guys over to hijack planes and take down your twin towers, what’s it to you?”
I worked there for ~90 days in 1993. NEVER AGAIN.
Would the Saudis understand the concept of “Blasphemy” if it stood up and delivered a solid swipe upside their heads?
Do they not understand what is meant by “hypocrisy” when it is applied to any remote standard of justice? Or is “justice” another of those flexible terms that means just about anything the speaker wants it to mean?
Sounds good to me. She’s all yours, Iran.
Q: What is the difference between Saudi Arabia and ISIS?
A: Saudi Arabia has a king.
Why are we sending our good people to fight for any Muslim country? Ban Islam in civilized countries and let them kill each other over there. Institute a “pet the pig” requirement to enter the US or board a plane.
I like that. Most pigs are cleaner, smarter and cuter than your average TSA agent. Plus they could be supervised by a kid from 4-H.
The baseline problem: they don’t see it as hypocrisy. They really think they have the right to tell everybody what to do in matters of “morality”. There’s no reasoning with this mindset.
Why should our citizens be subjected to such barbaric treatment? Our oil companies should get out of there. We no on get need their lousy crude. Support our own oil producers’ not our enemies. Trump would fix that.
Personally, I think we should help Israel and that's it. We don't need bases in Saudi Arabia any more. Park the 5th Fleet in the Mediterranean and be done with them.
Sorry...that should be “We no longer need their lousy crude.”
That reminds me, we’re running out of korans for the outhouse.
We should ban all Saudi money from funding any schools in the US.
Our dear friends, the Saudis...
They get testy when they discover our politician are not “honest”, “honest to the is once they are bought they stay bought.
Seems we no longer need your oil cupcake, so you are on your own with Iran, good luck...
Why torture the poor pig?
Can you expand on what it was like to work in SA? A woman I worked with was stationed there and she said it was a horrible experience. One day her arm was showing and some muslim asswipe spit on her arm. I’m interested in what you experienced too.
How many migrants did the UN ask the Saudis to take?
(crickets)
Deal. If they stop meddling in our affairs and keep their people there ... no going out to Western countries.
I bet they won’t take that deal.
These animals understand,and respond to, only superior force.
America has traditionally only inflicted major overwhelming force in response to atrocities committed against her. THAT MUST CHANGE, SOONER RATHER THAN LATER.
The invariable result of "political correctness" the pretense that all cultures are equal, and "diplomacy" is the triumph of evil and certain annihilation.
The Sandmaggot killer culture now (temporarily) own two of the three tallest buildings in the world.
A word to the wise...
This arrogant culture of desert robbers, murderers and bloodthirsty torturers, unable to create anything of value to humanity, is probably the best reason, long overdue, for the U.S.A. not only to leave and to stop funding the UN completely, but demand that they relocate, permanently, to some third world hellhole or any advanced country with a suicidal death wish. One year should be enough notice.
Only the most ignorant cultures ---about everything, science, history, technology, real religions, human culture---- would believe that the U.N. has served a useful humanitarian function in the last 40 years.
I can't help wondering whom Trump would appoint as Ambassador to the U.N., for as long as we chose to remain in that totally useless, ineffective, corrupt and robber killer body.
The House of Saud was created out of nothing, and for its deserved place in history should return there as quickly as possible.
Ragheads.... dream on!
