If she didn't want to dress that way, then she should NOT have chosen to represent a country that treats women that way. Her choice. She could have chosen to go as an individual as a protest to the way HER COUNTRY treats women. But she CHOSE to represent her country and the way it treats women.

Go read the last paragraph of the article again. She totally agrees with being covered in clothing. Again, there is no "poor her" about the whole thing.

For one of those Muslim countries that somehow managed to slaughter or drive out or do whatever they did to all of the non-Muslims who lived there prior to the Muslim takeover, they're a somewhat moderate country

Saudi Arabia is a "somewhat moderate country"!!! WTF!!! This claim is so idiotic it could only be advanced by someone totally ignorant of the Muslim world or ... a stand up comedian truly desperate for laughs. Nor is this the first time Bosco advanced this absurd bit of nonsense. It seems incredible but Bosco might actually believe this surreal claim to be true.

Because no one in their right mind would ever describe Saudi Arabia as a "somewhat moderate country". It is widely acknowledged as possibly the most extreme country in the Muslim world. It practices sharia law to the letter, the State religion is the Whahabbi sect the same ideology which fuels extemist jihadi terrorism groups such as IS or Al Quada, its religious police are the most rigid and uncompromising in implementing sharia of all the Muslim countries, the status of women is probably the worst in the Muslim world, its human rights record is appalling, its military are engaged in systematic slaughter of civilians, war crimes and other atrocities in Yemen ... I could go on but I am sure you get the picture. This is the medieval hell hole that Bosco is insisting is a charming moderate bunch of misunderstood nice guys

On just about every criterion by which these things can be judged, Saudi ranks as the most extreme and fantical Muslim State in the world. The Saudis make the Taliban seem positively liberal and the Iranian mullahs seem benign and sophisticated. Yet here we have Saudi's BFF on these boards singing their praises. It just goes to prove beyond any doubt whatsoever how microscopically little Bosco knows about or understands the Muslim world, or the Islamic religion.

Please bear this in mind whenever you encounter one of Bosco's frequent missives on Islam on these boards in future.

Why don't you just go ahead and name all of the Muslim countries that have slaughtered etc 99.999% of all non-Muslims that are more moderate, fool [:D]

You are the one making the claim that Saudi Arabia is a citadel of moderation in the Muslim world. It's up to you to provide evidence to support this claim, if you can find any. You made the claim - so back it up.

When you have finished your fool's errand of trying (and failing) to find supporting evidence, and realise that there isn't a shred of evidence in existence to support your idiotic claim, will it be too much to hope you will be man enough to admit you are not just wrong but wildly wrong?

Here's a tip for your research: Saudi Arabia is the only country in the world that denies driving licences to women. Just one indicator of how extreme your friends in Saudi Arabia are. Remember these are the ones who you want to supply with the all the arms they want (and they sure want plenty) presumably so they can continue butchering civilians in Yemen.

It all adds up to one more indicator of the monumental immensity of your ignorance about Islam and the Islamic world.

You can’t do it

You’re just another empty-headed howler troll... Armed with little more than your debate fallacies [:D]

Bosco, you are the one making the bizarre claims that Saudi Arabia is a "moderate" place and that there are other Muslim countries that are far more 'extreme'. When your claim was challenged you failed to produce a single shred of evidence to support your claim, instead reverting to the deflections and name calling that are your SOP.

There's no great mystery about why you are either unable or unwilling to produce such evidence - such evidence doesn't exist. By any measure to judge these things, Saudi Arabia ranks as the most exteme uncompromisingly fundamentalist Islamic country in the world. Can you name another country whosel policies are more extreme than Saudi Arabia's? Just one ...???

Your claim is so wrong, so diametrically opposed to reality that only a person with little or no knowledge or understanding of Islam and the Muslim world could make it. So carry on with your ridiculous assertion that SA is a moderate country and the rest of us will carry on laughing at your appalling ignorance and outlandish arrogance.

Every time you repeat this inane and insane claim, you persuade more people that the sum total of your knowledge about Islam and the Islamic world is not much greater than zero. Only a person whose understanding of the Muslim world is dwarfed by that of a retarded gnat would insist that such a bizarre deranged claim is true.

While it's true that some Trump supporters regard ignorance as a virtue only you seem hell bent on turning it into a 24/7 lifestyle.
