Miker 5,683 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 What? I was talking about neither Obama nor Michelle going to France to march for the freedom of speech and pay respect to the innocent that died, but instead going to Saudi Arabia to pay respect to leader that preached the opposite of freedom and imprisoned his own daughters because they were outspoken about women's rights. So what! Obviously they know what needs to be done and when. Mars..........or bust! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mast 980 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 So what! Obviously they know what needs to be done and when. No, they just know where the oil is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miker 5,683 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 No, they just know where the oil is. You have to remember the decisions to travel are not made by Obama himself but a committee which decide what is best for the country. Although you or anybody else might think Obama should do something else, it doesn't work that way and it never will. Mars..........or bust! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petie Estie 5,707 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Michelle did not break any saudi law or protocol by shaking hands (including the King's hand) and she was not required to wear any specific attire (including a head scarf) as alot of american and saudi women dont wear hijab. in saudi Hilary clinton, princess diana, queen rania, queen elizabeth, margaret thatcher, angela merkel, laura bush, condoleezza rice all have visited saudi arabia without wearing hijab.http://www.vox.com/2015/1/28/7928167/michelle-obama-saudi-arabia-headscarf https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7_0hjn5VIA signal ****ing boost to squash this total 100% BS OP.

Saeed 1,937 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 what do you eamn? Married women can't shake hands with men. I remember my English teacher from Canada shaking hands with my school's councillor who was a native married woman. She looked like she was getting electrocuted. :air: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VOLANTIS 16,503 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I don't think they shake hands with any female over there. It wouldn't matter how many Burqas/Veils/Niqabs she had on. I'll lift you 3 inches off the ground and drag you to a meter and a half Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The idea that the media is playing this up like she's making an act of defiance for women's rights is a paper tiger when Saudi law allows foreign women to not wear the head scarf.

Shadow 6,697 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Again, oil. Oil isn't the only reason. Refer to Obama's speech back in Cairo when he's been attempting to repair US and Muslim world relations. Stand in the light, cast your shadow.
