Or the HRC supporters, after all she took in plenty of money from the Saudi's and Qatar. Not too mention the Saudi's roll in global terrorism.

Leave this Liberal out of your debate. I find Sharia law to be an abomination and most of Islamic culture to be a justification for female slavery and equally despicable. I support the freedom of Religion and expression but I a vehemently opposed to people that attempt to make their religion or culture PART OF THE LAW of the United States of America.


I do not want the US to make the same mistake a Europe by encouraging massive Islamic immigration. IMHO if they needed cheap young laborers they could have found all they needed in Central and South America. At least these people were nominally Christian with a European cultural bias.

The entire leftist agenda is to assimilate all cultures with our current extreme-globalist view.

And yet, Liberals defend Islam... are they just ignorant or truly don't care about women and gay rights?

Seven things women in Saudi Arabia cannot do | The Week UK

Why this relates to the United States and Western countries... because Saudi Arabia's laws, culture, norms have everything to do with Islam. Liberals want to bring in hundreds of thousands of Muslims from countries with similar laws, culture, and norms.
And? That's Saudi Arabia, that is not every muslim country. This country does not live by islamic laws so why do you think bringing in muslims will change that?

Saudi Arabia is the country where the charlatan Muhammad started his cult, it is the very embodiment of Islam.

Liberals turn a blind eye towards what happens in Saudi Arabia and so do the Republicans your side votes for..

Personally, I think America needs to reconsider our relationship with Saudi Arabia. Especially if equality isn't one of their core values..

X2. Instead of kissing their butt for cheap oil, let's use our own oil and save some dignity. Iran stoned a woman to death on UN human rights day.

Anyone want to challenge these people to cater a gay wedding?

Welcome to the 21st century



Saudi women gear up for new freedom as driving ban ends

Quote:
Women will hit the roads in Saudi Arabia on Sunday with the lifting of the world's last ban on female drivers, long seen as an emblem of women's repression in the conservative kingdom.

The move, ordered last September by King Salman, is part of sweeping reforms pushed by his powerful young son Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who aims to transform the economy of the world's top oil exporter and open up its cloistered society.

"We are ready, and it will totally change our life," said Samira al-Ghamdi, a 47-year-old psychologist from Jeddah, one of the first Saudi women to be issued with a driving license.

The reforms in Saudi Arabia that Crown Prince Salman and King Salmon are pretty staggering because they are coming fast.

Concerts, Music, Women driving and allowed to go to schools and enter business and government.
The Religious Police are on the decline - progress won't be fast, but it will come.
