OMG!!
I wonder,
What is the difference between being executed by electric chair, firing squad, gas chamber or being crucified?
Except for the different methods used, not a whole lot, your life is over and you die regardless of what will be done to you.
One word. Oil. The Saudis probably own a lot of our debt too. Like a bank; they call in those loans and cripple us. They have leverage that we don’t.
Crimes in Saudi Arabia such as homosexuality and attending anti-government rallies have previously led to crucifixion sentences. Unlike the biblical crucifixions carried out by the Romans against Christians in antiquity, Saudi crucifixions usually involve displaying a beheaded corpse in public on a cross.

Business Insider is good to include this detail.
Dead is dead....
I thought that in multicultural Canada that every culture was equal to and as good as any other culture? So why are they criticising Saudi Culture?
“That we are not implementing the same sanctions against Saudia that we have in place against Iran”
As Churchill said, “Nations do not have friends. Nations have common interests.” The interests of the UK and the financial and humanitarian interests of the US vastly exceed its interests in how Saudi Arabia treats its own citizens. The financial and military interests of the US in controlling an even worse evil, Iran, would be greatly at risk if our ability to use SA airspace and navigation rights were impeded.
Think of it like World War II. Suddenly, the US was “best friends” with murderous “Uncle” Joe Stalin. Times of need make for strange bedfellows. The Soviets killed eight of every eleven German soldiers who died during the war. Should the US and the UK have not allied with the Soviets because Stalin was a homicidal maniac? If we take the moral high ground, yes. What would the cost of that moral stance have been to American and British soldiers?
The reality is, Saudi Arabia pumps eleven million barrels of oil per day and has somewhere between 16-18 percent of the world’s known reserves. If the US and the UK enforced sanctions, what would that do to the world economy, and how many innocent people would starve to death as a result? There is a bigger picture to consider. For each additional dollar a barrel of oil costs, how many people in marginally surviving countries would starve to death? And, what would those sanctions cause in Saudi Arabia? The US and the UK cooperate with the Saudi regimen because it’s likely that whatever takes its place will be more horrible than we can easily imagine.
The Middle East is not a case of good versus Evil. It is a case of one evil versus a worse evil. You pick your poison and hope you’ll survive.
This being an islimic execution, I knew there had to be a beheading in there somewhere. No ‘slime activity is complete unless somebody’s hacking off body parts.
it is scandalous that:
The US and UK are keeping silent instead of criticizing the Sauds
That we are not implementing the same sanctions against Saudia that we have in place against Iran>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
NOPE!
Canada is governed by weird liberal fascists who are so confident of their superiority they are evenly smug.
The fact ius that that Canada’s village idiot Justin Trudeau
doubled down on his foot stamping hissy fit against Saudi Arabia in supporting his “minister” of foreign affairs Freeland, who is a femino-nazi prig seeking to impose a neo-colonial liberal morality of the Saudi Kingdom, concerning internal Sharia law that has been there over 1000 years in that area.
What a laugh to see Trudeau and Freeland attempting to pussy whip the Saudi princes! Buahahahahahaha!
Problem is though, Canada will now lose billions from its economy as the Sauds pull out their students, patients, diplomats, air lines, travel companies,and investments in Canada.
The new Slogan for these manic Canadian liberals and their neo-colonial superiority is : “ What Price Smugness?”
If you are a Canadian do not go to Saudi Arabia, your smugness may cost your head.
Freeland needs to be run out on a rail but Canada’s femino-nazis think this their “finest” hour even though they wallow in a pile of their own demented shit.
This distinction means they didn't crucify him at all. They beheaded him.
That said, I don't like how they do it. But since I'm not a citizen of it, I don't have any say.
This is akin to how various malefactors and rebels were dealt with in the UK until around 1800. Traitors and rebels had their heads nailed up over the gate of the town they were from to encourage others by their example. There have been a number of criminals hereabouts who ought have gotten the same treatment with their worthless carcasses attached to a steel pole and displayed along the interstate. Not everything in islime is bad.
