        We built some gas turbines for them at Siemens and trained a few of their people for a new factory we had to build in Riyadh as part of the turbine deal. The individual people we were training were nice enough but it felt like morals just went out the window when the Saudi money showed up.

      It’s so weird how the US cut ties with Russia when the war started, but still remains friends with a country like this. Somehow I feel like western countries only care about human rights violations if the victims are other westeners.

    His tweets, seen by Middle East Eye, focused on unemployment, inflation, and government mismanagement of resources and called for the release of political prisoners.

    And the Saudi government responds by sentencing him to death. Why are they so scared?

      Conservatives have a deep need to oppress others. When criticized, the natural conservative response is to lash out. Killing citizens is a typical way conservatives maintain their oppressive governments.

      Conservatism is a global plague in desperate need of a cure. It has no place in a modern culture or government.

    that sounds like a completely fabricated justification to execute someone.

    The same country that arrested Murtaja Qureiris (13 at the time) over anti-government protest charges; he’s facing the death penalty possibly by crucifixion.

    The whole thing is revolting and the fact that tax dollars go to that country is despicable.
