Access Denied

Saudi Arabia, despite promises of cooperation with Human Rights Watch, blocked its access to prisons and detention facilities as reported by the human rights watchdog today. I don’t think that HRW actually expected to be granted full access to the country, for God’s sake, even its ‘contact us’ page is blocked in the kingdom. We already know what we need to know: ‘human rights’ and ‘Saudi Arabia’ cannot comfortably exist in one sentence.

this really is the contradiction of ksa isnt it? in one post we are talking about economic development, modernization and responsibility....in the next we are talking about a closed society, secretive, opposed to liberalization.

time will tell i suppose.
