COLORADO'S ATTORNEY GENERAL MAKES A FOOL OF HIMSELF

John Suthers, attorney general for Colorado, went to Saudi Arabia recently to assure the dictatorship there that Homaidan al-Turki, (the Saudi student convicted for raping and enslaving his Indonesian maid), was being treated fairly; (via Dhimmi Watch).

This visit was uncalled for, because what al-Turki did was a crime, and no matter what "laws" they come up with in the House of Saud, that does not make it legal there either. Slavery is unacceptable at any place, and at any time, and Saudi Arabia's dictatorship should be made to understand that, and not appeased. Alas, Suthers attempted top appease them. Also appalling is that the Feds back Suthers on this.

Debbie Schlussel talks about this shameful display of dhimmitude in one of her latest op-eds, and one of her correspondents follows up with some more interesting observations.
