Brutality in Saudi

[I AM NOT THAT GUY 5,715]

and thank God that the morons from the westboro baptist church are not running a whole country....

But the Trinity United Church of Christ is.

[The Nature Boy 4,224]

And away he goes again.

Yet another example of Proverbs 26:11.

How about this.. neutral source... Still maintain women in Saudi are not oppressed.

Women in Saudi Arabia are terribly oppressed – they cannot vote, drive, or work in many places. To even leave the country, they need to produce written permission from their male guardian (their father, brother, or husband), even if the woman is going out of the country with the male guardian. Saudi Arabia has taken this extremely misogynistic view to a new level though – male guardians will now receive a text message alert when “their” woman is leaving the country. Even more disgusting is that these texts – sent from the Interior Ministry as part of its tracking system – are being sent to all male guardians; including those who opted out of this program. While this program has been in place since 2010, until recently, guardians had to specifically request the notifications in order to receive them.

Manal Al-Sharif and her husband were “shocked” when they were leaving Saudi Arabia together, when all of a sudden her husband received a text letting him know his wife was leaving the country. Al-Sharif’s husband had not requested from the Interior Ministry this information, alarming the two even more.

This alert program is not just for women though – it is also used for those who women are most aptly compared to in Saudi Arabia- these alerts are also used for children, and children also have guardians.

Saudi writer and blogger Eman Al Nafjan posits the question:

“Why is [the guardianship system] being technologically implemented and being updated?… Why is it not being phased out? That’s the real question.”

In 2012, is the fact that Saudi Arabia is finding new ways to infantilize women a sign that it has no intention of giving women the rights and freedoms they deserve? Is the GPS alert an indication that Saudi Arabia intends to restrict women’s rights further in the years to come? What should be done to push Saudi Arabia into the modern era and end its misogynistic treatment of women?

If I were you, I guess this would be the appropriate time to say:

"Yeah... but what is the basis of their ideology ???? The Westboro Baptist Church bases their beliefs on what ?"

And then, if you don't give me the answer I want, I get to start insulting you and attributing wild claims to you, etc etc.

How about this.. neutral source... Still maintain women in Saudi are not oppressed.

Again, who has said that there is no oppression of women in Saudi ?? You keep making this claim, with no basis. If you are accusing ME of saying that, you need to either provide a direct quote from me, or retract your lie.

And there is nothing in this article that backs up your continuing mantra that Islam is the reason for these problems. Zero. Zip. Zilch.

And yet, they are Christians basing what they do on the Bible. Therefore, Christianity must be idiotic and the Bible the work of the devil. Right?

[PalestineMyHeart 1,897]

You maintain that the brutality and oppression in Saudi is not connected to fundamentalist Islam . I keep asking you one simple question. What is the law based on there.

Stop attributing quotes to me that I have never made. This is your final warning.

What comes after the final warning?

[PalestineMyHeart 1,897]

What comes after the final warning?

Report. What did you think ?

[Karee 4,190]

Report. What did you think ?

I don't know. That's why I asked.

westboro bases they Beliefs on Christianity and they are hate-filled idiots. Difference is they are not running a whole country.. Plus I am pretty sure I did not insult you

Now ! see how easy I connected Westboro to Christianity.. Can you tell me what all law in Saudi is based on or is the truth to painful.

[PalestineMyHeart 1,897]

I don't know. That's why I asked.

OK... were you imagining any possibilities other than the obvious ?

I wasn't imagining anything. That's why I asked. Generally when someone makes a final warning threat, they convey the consequences. You did no such thing, which is why I asked.

You are smart enough to read and understand. Nobody said that ..

What I am saying... and I have said it over and over. Not all Muslims are bad people, Not all Muslim countries are run by oppressive fundamentalist regimes. I get that...

What I am saying.. Saudi is a place that is run by Fundamentalist oppressive Muslims. If the Westboro crowd was running America, we would be a lot like Saudi.
