I'm talking about Hillary. The Bush Saudi connection is old news and I didn't like that either. I'm talking about a woman running for president looking the other way on women being oppressed by people she is taking money from.
Saudi Arabia is one of the United States' key allies in that part of the world.
And women in that part of the world are politically and socially oppressed. Many of them willingly so, because the religions founded by Abraham were all misogynistic. And the governments in that part of the world are all, to some degree or another, theocracies. The only reason that women aren't as oppressed in other countries is because we've established secular governments. Our government does not have the authority or power to get rid of theocracies in other parts of the world. All we can do as a people is try to set an example, and to urge those countries to respect all their citizens equally.
I know. It's shocking. The Pentecostal woman who lives down the street, who cannot cut her hair, who has to wear dresses with long sleeves and collars so that she shows no skin, who cannot take the car without her husband's permission, who cannot spend money without her husband's permission, who cannot wear makeup or jewelry (except her wedding band) because she's forbidden to be vain, who defers all decisions to her husband, all this in the United States and with her consent. Because the Bible tells her so.
I think you are referring to hajj which everyone Muslim is supposed to attend once in their lifetime, it happens the last month of every year. Since this guy went both times in March, that was not what he was doing.
Last month of every year of the Islamic calendar which is lunar so the hajj has been in March in recent years.
Hillary is not as tight with the mideast as Trump. His 'self-funded' campaign was also funded by muslims.
"...That’s because Trump’s real estate and licensing income relies in part on wealthy Muslims, and Muslim-backed businesses, both located in the US and overseas—and particularly on a willingness to pay handsomely for things with the “Trump” name on them. Here’s a look at some of the more prominent deals and partnerships with Muslim individuals, governments, and companies that have buoyed the Trump brand over the years..."
It's common knowledge that she takes millions of dollars from the Saudis through political contributions. Women are not allowed to drive there, women are property of men, not equal partners. How can progressives look the other way on these facts?
Do you realize that the Saudi royal family takes residence in Trump tower in NYC?
Mutaib bin Abdulaziz Al Saud currently lives in Trump tower full time and has close business ties with Donald Trump.
