Do you know that in one of our allied countries an opponent can be beheaded and then crucified?

This is unfair of you. Unfortunately lots of unjustified people die every day, but you cherry pick this issue and then morally reprimand us for not paying enough attention.naima said:He may die today but PF are more interested in homemade clocks or funny pictures about saudi cars for women.
New York: An international campaign calling on Saudi Arabia to halt the beheading and "crucifixion" of a young man arrested when he was still at high school is growing, but there are fears he could be killed at any time.

I searched and I couldn't find any quote from Obama on this. Hopefully France can persuade them.
I don't think that you get his point. You want to bring attention to the plight of someone - that's fine. Complaining about what others choose to read or post because you think that this is more important is pointless.naima said:I know that every state has its rules. But if we accept that, if we say that is cherry picking we will never be allowed to critisize children rapes or torture of prisoners by any army or any dictator
Per your sources, to prevent his "execution", which I would call cruel and unusual, but may or may not also be murder depending on whether or not a deliberate corruption of justice was done. The surface details and Saudia Arabia's history suggests justice was corrupted.Astronuc said:Apparently the looming execution of Ali Al-Nimr has sparked a global outcry to prevent his murder.

Given that his father is Shiite, I doubt his appeal would carry too much weight.Astronuc said:I would imagine his father is in a better position to ask for clemency.

Our french president asked saudi authorities to stop that. What did Obama say or did not say?
How do you know this?naima said:Saudi Arabia beheaded more peoples that Isis.
'By contrast, ISIS has carried out 65 beheadings so far this year, according to figures compiled by the editors of Wikipedia. "
The case of Ali Al-Nimr gained international attention in 2012 when he was arrested at the age of 17 for participating in anti-government protests in Saudi Arabia. He was charged with a range of offenses, including attacking police, breaking allegiance to the ruler, and using his cell phone to incite demonstrations. The exact reason for his sentence of crucifixion has not been disclosed, but it is believed to be related to his involvement in the protests.
Ali Al-Nimr's case went through the Saudi Arabian criminal justice system, which is based on Islamic law. He was tried in a closed court without access to a lawyer and was sentenced to death by crucifixion. His case was then sent to the Court of Appeal, where his sentence was upheld. The final decision was made by the Supreme Court of Saudi Arabia, which has a history of supporting the government's actions.
The international community has condemned the sentence of crucifixion for Ali Al-Nimr and has called for his release. Human rights organizations have raised concerns about the lack of due process and the use of capital punishment for non-violent offenses. Governments, including the United States, have also expressed their disapproval, but the Saudi government has not budged on their decision.
If Ali Al-Nimr's sentence is carried out, he will be executed by crucifixion, which involves beheading followed by public display of the body on a cross. This form of punishment is considered one of the most brutal and inhumane methods of execution. Additionally, the international community has warned that this case could lead to further unrest and damage the already strained relations between Saudi Arabia and other countries.
There are ongoing efforts by human rights organizations and activists to bring attention to Ali Al-Nimr's case and put pressure on the Saudi government to overturn his sentence. Some governments have also been using diplomatic channels to advocate for his release. However, the ultimate decision lies with the Saudi government, and it is uncertain if these efforts will be successful in saving Ali Al-Nimr's life.
