“Wonder how they treat non-Muslims that are in prison Muslim countries. Odds are they don’t even MAKE it to prison.”

Actually, I have some second hand experience on that from a Dutch program manager. Each week one of his jobs was to go around to every prison and see if any of his hundreds of workers had been arrested. There is no process whereby they get charged and tried and have a chance at a lawyer, at least not in Saudi Arabia. The cop who arrests them takes them to a prison and that’s it. (If there’s a trial or defense possible, he didn’t say.)

In Saudi Arabia, if a prisoner’s family does not feed him, he starves or he takes the food from other prisoners. So, to see that his workers didn’t starve he’d have to supply their food. But to make sure they got it he had to feed every prisoner in the prison, lest they just beat up the prisoner and take his food. The Saudis would portion out his men to different prisons so his company would have to feed all the prisoners in all the prisons.

Amnesty International would probably have a hemorrhage over a BLT, but the conditions in Saudi prisons....? Not so much.
