Saudi expats' shock at beheading

The BBC has a report from another foreign worker in the Leech Kingdom.
I can well understand her fears, and those of her colleagues. And I agree that leaving Saudi now would be playing into the hands of the psychopaths.

But is that a bad thing? Both the rulers and their enemies are our enemies. It was never a very moral thing to do, work for the leeches, although I'd have a hard time saying "No" to the money too.

Most striking of all in this report is the BBC's (inadvertent I'm sure) spot-on calling on the decapitations: 'Most Westerners in Riyadh felt Paul was doomed from the moment he was kidnapped. Because he was American, and his captors hated all Americans, he would be the victim of a beheading ritual drawn from the darkest times in human history.'

"a beheading ritual drawn from the darkest times in human history"

And that is exactly where Islam is right now, and trying to drag us there too. The darkest time is now.
