    Things are starting to look up for this ole world

    Saudi Arabia freezes Canada trade ties for urging activists' release
    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-45079682

    Saudi Arabia has said it is freezing all new trade with Canada and expelling its ambassador over its "interference" in the kingdom's domestic affairs.
    A Saudi foreign ministry statement said it considered https://twitter.com/CanadaFP/status/1025383326960549889 a violation of Saudi sovereignty.

    Canadian foreign ministry spokeswoman Marie-Pier Baril stressed that Canada would "always stand up for the protection of human rights... including women's rights, and freedom of expression around the world".
    The leading Saudi women's rights campaigner Manal al-Sharif thanked Canada for "speaking up" and https://twitter.com/manal_alsharif/status/1026380402531819520.

    Responding to the mock 9/11 threat Elizabeth Tsurkov, a research fellow at the Israeli Forum for Regional Thinking, said: 'This tweet by an official Saudi propaganda account has now been deleted.

    'Seems like they realised that reminding us that 15 of the 9/11 hijackers were Saudi is not a great idea'.

    Sorry but offence taken.

    This is a story about a real democracy standing up for human rights. People/women, human rights activists are jailed as we speak in Saudi Arabia, a country that has profited immensley because of one thing....oil.
    Canada, for better or worse has spoken out about these human viloations publicly and obviously has embarrassed the " kingdom"
    Do what you will Saudi Arabia, it won't affect our resolve.

    This image of a plane flying towards the CN Tower is a gutless reaction.
    And the quote about interfering with what doesn't concern him is a joke.
    Do you look away when a neighbour beats his wife or children?

    Calling you out Samaritan. Your stories reek of bullshit

    I don’t understand why the people of Saudi Aribia take to the streets with guns in hand and fight for their rights against this tyranny.

    Crickets.......chirp chirp.....looking at you America and what the fuck England?

    No support in a moral stance against the Saudi's imprisonment of human rights activists.

    What a bloody shame.

    Yeah never got around to a response to your post. Big fan by the way

    It's cause the guys who own the guns sorta dominate the culture. A bit like the rest of the world.

    If it's going their way why make a fuss?
