Sounds like an official terrorist group, that you might find on their version of companies house!

On a serious side, it's the fear factor that keeps all in check.

sounds all rather elaborate if you ask me, 15 people for a hit on a someone who's crime is apparently to compare Saudi leader to Putin... quite sure people have said worse. dont know if the video release is more convincing but the stills are disconnected and dont really show anything. :shrug:

Bit OTT. That's like saying you wouldn't visit anywhere in Eastern Europe because of Putin.

Absolutely nothing like saying that....

I have been to Eastern Europe, and don’t find the threat over religion, sexism, or homophobia any where near the level that is prevalent in those religious backwaters of the Middle East.

No comparison whatsoever, but that’s my choice and my opinion, don’t make me right, but hey hoooo

I wasn't making a comparison between Eastern Europe and the Middle East.

I just think writing off a whole region because of the actions of one government isn't really fair on the region. My understanding (not visited myself but got mates that live out there) is that places like Lebanon, Jordan and Oman have some examples of great (genuine) local culture mixed with quite a lot of freedoms. They're not liberal democracies, but then a lot of the world isn't.

Too right...and enough problems in our country to sort out to be pointing the finger at others
