There are parts of their culture that is just plain wrong from what we
consider a modern civilized point of view. Slavery? Pedophilia? When
we catch people doing these things in America, we arrest them. When we
catch Saudis doing it in America, their excuse is one of culture. But
I guess we can impose our culture here...sometimes.

But maybe apologist for a simple pedophilia case is too extreme. I was
lumping it in with the whole range of 'wrong' that we ignore from
them. My apologies.
