That's the ticket (imo)! I have traveled the world pretty widely and generally see things with a "cultural relativism" perspective, but the cultures of the Middle East are among the most inhuman and cruel I have ever encountered, and I fear it runs deeper than just politics. It is a matter of fundamental values, really.Originally Posted by scorpio

Yea - but the difference is, while these things certainly happen - we don't approve of them happening or acknowledge it is the system gone awry. I don't think we have a court saying "Tie his arm to a board and remove the hand by sword" or "Thirty lashes for drinking a beer."
