“Just last week, 51 Saudi citizens were sentenced to execution by decapitation and crucifixion. All according to Sharia law. Their ‘crime’? Participating in a street demonstration. What’s even more shocking is that three were minors, including one boy who was just 15 years old at the time of the incident and whose parents insist he was an innocent bystander arrested by mistake. Opponents of the executions hoped that intense diplomatic pressure from two staunch Saudi allies — the UK and the U.S. — might persuade judges to lighten the minors’ sentences. But the response from Riyadh is, in essence: ‘It’s none of your business.'”
