Do you want me to say "Oh dear, those poor Saudis! Imagine the poor little people! Imagine the plight of women! Imagine them having a nasty government like that!"


Well, that would be a start if your idea of what to do about things in the world that are wrong is to just cry about them. The next step (#2!) would be some action to change what you and I see as wrong.

What I would have you do is support US government and UN and other country's efforts to declare the Saudi enslavement of women wrong, unacceptable, and pressure them to change. That's what we do in human rights cases all over the world.
