We Have Standards You Know

The right action for the wrong reason?

A group of men were detained for helping a woman who screamed as she was being dragged off by a member of the Saudi religious police after he spotted her in a car with a man, a newspaper reported on Monday.
...
Although a Muslim man should not touch any woman not related by family ties or marriage, the religious policeman reportedly grasped the woman, attempting to drag her into his police car.

Those of you muttering under your breath "we should've started with them first" should keep in mind Iraq's is one of the more secular societies in the Arab world. Compared to what Saudi Arabia would be like, Iraq is a dream to rebuild.

Now, those of you wondering why we can't just build walls around the oil fields and let the rest of them starve... well, take a number and go sit over there.
