Not that the rest of the west including (among others) Great Britain and Germany do not sell weapons, and help S. Arabia where they can.
Because of oil, oil, and oil. it is my well-read belief that any war down there was started and executed because of oil.
And we love our dictators, as long as they keep delivering oil. To hell with human rights.

Typical of the secretive world of Saudi Arabia, and its 'Specialised Criminal Court', the scope of his 'crime' has never been defined.
Whenever you think the world might become a better place, you read about the BS of those wackos. In my NOT SO HUMBLE opinion they are not much better than IS.

Barbaric, yes. But if you ask me the wacko was the one who got uppity. Take your chances I guess, I mean its not like he or his relatives didn't know this could happen if they got caught. Additionally I think the Saudis will at least lop his head of first so he doesn't suffer.
Also what does this have to do with the U.S.?
