We snivel and complain when they come over here and try to impose their culture and beliefs on us. Yet we line up to support a woman like this when she does the exact same thing to them. A corner coffee shop is no place press the issue. She did so at her peril, and paid the price. If she doesn't like the laws over there, she should just come home and STFU about it.

Having spent 2 years in Saudi then been there on and off for almost 20 years, Jeff is totally correct here.

It does not matter what she thinks is correct, its what the Matawa (religious police) feel is correct. Her even being with a man who is not her husband, Father or Brother is against the law there. If she wants to make a political statement, make it at home, not in a foreign country.

She needs to be sent home immediately and hope that this is what happens.
