My husband and I lived in Saudi Arabia five years. I KNOW the middle east.
Have YOU lived there? Do YOU know what it's like living over there? Do you know how women live there? My husband and I also traveled extensively over there (Egypt [twice], Jordan, Bahrain, Qatar, the Emirates, etc.) as well.
If you DID know the life over there, you wouldn't be labeling ME the one who looks like a fool. And you wouldn't be labeling me a coward.
The FOOLS are the people who sit on their fat asses over here and PRETEND like they know what they're talking about when it comes to the middle east.
Being STUPID isn't "brave." Sometimes it takes BRAVERY to admit that it's time to "get outta Dodge" (speaking of the middle east).
COWARDICE involves being afraid to admit that you don't have all the answers and THINKING that you know all about a place you've NEVER been to and/or NEVER lived in.
Also, you are swallowing this Internet story like it's the Gospel, true in every word. You have no CLUE as to the validity of ANY of this. You believe it because you want to believe it, NOT really knowing the who, what, when, where and why of this entire story.
WHERE are this young woman's family? Her relatives? Her BROTHERS? NO WOMEN in the middle east are abandoned like that! None, zero, unless they RUN AWAY. Then, they are, unfortunately at the mercy of the world.
Maybe you believe it because it involves a fairly attractive young woman. Who knows; who cares? But, go ahead, BLEED for her. It's what you want to do, without knowing FACT #ONE about her or her story.
Yea yea, that makes you look even more the fool.
And even more cowardly.
I think I recall you; you’re the one that was boasting not too long ago about living overseas, working for an American company and boasting of not paying taxes and making out like bandits all the while ridiculing others in this country who were/are picking up your slack...I’ll have to go hunt those posts of yours down; very enlightening as to the “type” you are.
