Saudi man executed for ‘witchcraft and sorcery’

I’m still amazed. A man is beheaded by a system based on things that don’t exist for a practice based on things that don’t exist

Sounds like Sharia Law at its most extreme form of application. Just the very thing we should be up in arms and fighting against…unless they are selling us oil and buying our weapons.

We really ought to be in a position to put political and economic pressure on regimes to change and become more modern & humane, but in the case of Saudi Arabia and most of the Gulf States, we have to just keep smiling and ignore their excesses…
