Kind of a strange gig, but some folks really want to get a head in life.

Now, telling that Saudi-Arabia does *shocking* things is a bit hypocritical ?

This is probably a harsh reply to the OP, but it is us (the 'West) who supports Saudi Arabia, sends them weapons, started a war against Iraq because of them, and generally are very nice to them, especially after we know what the Islam schools are telling people there, which then again leads to guys like Bin Laden .. but we still pump money and build them monstrous architecture in the desert, for tourists.

If we so so condemn them for training terrorists (no that was not in Iraq) and find them uncivilized for having their Shariah and whatever, why do we support them then with everything ? Isn't it oil, weapons exports and a drone base

It makes the world go around.

America doesn't need to like Saudi Arabia, but it does need it.

For now at least.
