The crazy Saudis are at it again

Saudi Court Sentences 75-Year-Old Woman to Lashes

For having bread delivered !

Beware the illegal mingling --- what a bunch of arseholes the Saudis are.

[JonnyHungwell]

If an old woman has no living immediate family and is too ill/infirm to venture out, then in Saudi she has one of two choices - starve or be beaten and jailed. What else can you call them but crazy and medieval follows of a perverted doctrine.

Hush! Do not criticise the Saudis. They are our allies! We forgive them anything, even spreading their special brand of islam and financing terrorists.
Like Franklin D. Roosevelt allegedly said about the Nicaraguan dictator Somoza: 'He may be a son of a bitch, but he's our son of a bitch.'
So turn a blind eye to that woman! She is suffering in our interest!

I would have thought you would have welcomed this sentence, Jonny- as a conservative and a disciplinarian.

Surely you will be calling for 40 years hard labour. Or the rope?
