Saudi Arabia: Many of the 200+ artists booked for electronic music festival “Soundstorm” (Dec16-19) use social media “to regularly champion issues like feminism”.

Even though the Saudi General Entertainment Authority pays performance fees of “at least triple the usual rate”, Saudi women's rights activists are imprisoned (“raped in prison”, according to Rana Ahmad), and evidence shows that Loujain Al-Hathloul was even subjected to “electric shocks, beatings, whipping”.

That's the issue with Zionists. They are hypocrites.

Same-sex marriage in Israel is still illegal, there is no civil marriage in Israel. They are legally barred from starting a family.

Those pride parades are a a theatric show. Why not, and the Hebrew Bible is clear on sodomy. twitter.com/YoniMichanie/…

In 2016, Saudi Arabia classified Hezbullah as a “terrorist organization” and issued a decision to arrest those who support or sympathize with it.

Ayatollah Sheikh Hussein Al-Radi, days after: “If Hezbollah’s crime is fighting Israel and the takfiris, I am with them.”

The 70-year-old Islamic scholar is still imprisoned in Saudi dungeons for the crime of voicing support to those fighting Israel and terrorists, and asking to end the Yemen war.
