There is a point at which the actions of a government, legitimate or otherwise, against its own people should not be tolerated by the rest of the world. Although I don’t quite think the behavior I’ve described in my post is quite “there” yet, I think there is a fine line between this kind of oppressive behavior and something like the Nazi final solution. At what point is enough “enough”?
And I’m not suggesting invading them to set them right…although there are times that I think carpet bombing some areas of the world with high yield nuclear weapons would perform a great social service to humanity. But this kind of behavior makes it damn hard for me to give serious credence to any calls from Saudi citizens or immigrants for “tolerance” of their cultural differences.
