Mr R Sole: Sorry, i know this wasn't meant to be the topic but your point about westerners having to conform to islamic law in saudi.

The law in saudi is based on Islam. However, the law over here is certainly not based on Christianity or any other religion. Yes, i agree that saudi's coming here are not subjected to religious laws, but they still have to adibe by English law!(murder, rape, crime etc etc)

Therefore, my point is, whichever country people visit, the should respect the law of the land irrespective of whether the law is based on religion or not!

I do not agree with the terrorists but your point of them trying to change the way of life here is not true. They are merely trying to stop the injustice taking place around the middle east which many people are turning a blind eye to.

Anyway, i think we are well of the topic now.

No offence intended to anyone!
