LOL. For some reason no one are so kind towards some parts of Eastern Europe which are trying to part with socialism. They are the enemies who are to be toppled and destroyed for allegedly doing it too slow.

Yep, the pot has just deserved a standing ovation for calling the kettle black. /s
” “” “That’s changing and fast. MbS recently said women there don’t have to wear that bedsheet thing anymore.” “” “”
I am now a bit confused. Saddam, Gaddafy, Assad, Mubarak not only said women there don’t have to wear bedsheets but also implemented policies allowing them not to. They have also punished people who violently opposed such policies.
It has resulted in wrath of ‘communities’ who believed their ways are insult to Islam or let’s say ‘oppressing religious freedom’ as neocons put it.
All of them deserved their death and their nations destroyed over removing the veil and other ‘attacks on civil rights and religious freedoms’ but for some reason this Saudi is given a pass.
If it is not a double standard what is it?
NO need for confusion - MbS is obviously not a Saddam, Gaddafy, Assad, Mubarak.
