Name these countries.
Read the fucking Wiki article that I mentioned, it goes into great detail naming the countries that allow it. I'm not your researcher.

women are highly respected in Islam, we love and respect our women and we dont like other men checking them out, does that make us bad.
But you don't give them equal rights, do you?

so they happen in muslim countries, and what?

bring me Quranic evidence that its permissible

my mum got her handbag snatched with £600 in it, does that mean this country promotes or tolerates theft???

What about adultery? It happens in this country, does it mean that this country toleerates it?

The Encyclopedia Britannica wasn't around in the 7th century so is little use on this question

Which wiki article? I don't normally use wiki as 'proof' - it's unacceptable in academic circles :(
Try the AI report that's mentioned in it, or isn't that acceptable either? There's plenty of detail in the footnotes of the article. Get off your high horse about how poor 'Wikipedia' is. If you thinks it's wrong in this case get onto them to get it changed.

Precisely, and without pressure from the outside world the Saudi regime will not change because it is so repressive and Sharia law is one of the tools it uses.

But the Saudi regime has never, to the best of my knowledge, responded to external pressure. This country still supplies them with tons of military hardware.

Is this a joke? The entire post-war Saudi regime has been dictated by the US. It's a state built around responding to external pressures.
 
I put the fucker on ignore and he still follows me around. :rolleyes:

No doubt another witty comment from the man with the bloodiest username on the boards.

I'd argue that today, it's probably more the other way round...

You put me on ignore and still you've spent all day replying to me, jumping into posts that have fuck all to do with you imagining that i'm talking about you. You made a daft, historically laughable post, i pointed mit out for the rst of us to pick up on and talk about - you've got nothing to worry about, it doesn't concern you.

I've got more interst from you since you've put me on ignore that before.

You'd be wrong to do so i think.
I think the neocons in America would disagree with you there!

They hate Saudi Arabia, in fact they are probably enemy number 1 for a lot of them. They are highly critical of the Saudi Regime and the American government are none too keen on the Saudi political and legal systems either, yet whereas countries like Syria and Iran are singled out for being part of the axis of evil and dictatorships, Saudi is praised for the strides they are making towards "democracy". Saudi Arabians were behind 9/11 and the "bad" half of the Saudi Regime are the main sponsors of al-Qaida. We all know how willing America is to invade any country to clean out al-Qaida, yet Saudi Arabia is off limits...does all that really add up if America is the one with power over Saudi Arabia?...

...or does it seem more like Saudi Arabia is untouchable...?

AFAIK no-one has ever pressured Saudi to change its internal practices

It's prudent to make SA think it's untouchable. It always has been a wise policy, from 30 year ago when they re-wrote the rules so that SA holidings in the US were not to be availible to usual scrutiniy. It's just massaging the john.
