Being liberal is not against any religion, it just increases the quality of life. Liberal views in favor of humanity

The decision to reopen cinemas is not isolated one but comes in the context of the historical transformation taking place in Saudi Arabia, which has taken shape over a short period of time.

Alhanof Abdullah I'm not Saudi but I find them to be very Hospitable contrary to what people believe!! They have their own culture but take care of their own.

Beheadings, amputations, floggings, slavery etc., etc.,........ Their wealth should be confiscated, their oil should be poisoned so it cannot be sold and their air and sea ports destroyed along with all roads and railroads leading to the civilized World. The region should then be used for weapons testing

[@bombardement1]

Next step is gambling, prostitution and of course alcohol.

[@hanoo8]
