40 lashes for 75 Year Old Woman

[Crazed Rabbit]

Don't get me wrong, I sympathize with her. Wahhabist ideology is sickening, their methods are an insult to any sensible human being, however, Saudi Arabia is *their* country and they can run it whichever way they want. If they try to impose their ways on other countries, THAT is where I would see a problem. The way it is, I cannot dictate to them how they should and should not live.

So you're a 'let the genocide happen' kind of guy, as long as it stays strictly in-country?

I'm sorry, but I don't think we can get a moral pass for letting injustice happen without doing anything just because they're in a different country.

Not at all. The difference between Wahhabism and Genocide is that Wahhabism is a set of rules and however idiotic those rules might be, as long as you follow them the powers that be will leave you alone. There is no set of rules in genocide. Jews can't stop being Jewish, Tutsis can't stop being Tutsi, Armenians and Assyrians can't stop being Armenian and Assyrian. So, it's a big difference.
