Saudi Cops Grab U.S. Woman In Starbucks
Feb. 8th, 2008 11:28 amhttp://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/02/07/world/main3800725.shtml
An American businesswoman was carted off to jail by religious police in Saudi Arabia for sitting with a male colleague at a Starbucks in Riyadh
Following her arrest and interrogation, the woman was hauled before a judge.
“He said 'You are sinful and you are going to burn in hell.' I told him I was sorry. I was very submissive. I had given up. I felt hopeless,” she told the Times.
A U.S. official told The Times that it was being treated as “an internal Saudi matter” and refused to comment on her case
OK, so what are you going to do when they chop off an arm or a US citizen for petty theft?!
Do you still think there is anything we can do to stop their hatred?
