As I have stated, they really don't want you to emancipate them. Issues of voting, capital punishment, etc is part of a social system that you obviously can't agree with - others on this forum may do. But, again, you fail to qualify what you are saying by answering to what is being said about western nations and the indemic problems of society brought about by the delusion of freedom.
I rather feel that inequalities in Saudi or Qatar or anywhere else in the middle-east is abviously deserving of having the whole nation derided, in your eyes, but not so for any comparable social problems in the West, such as the fact that capital punishment is not unique to Saudi Arabia and the middle-east. Or the fact that Amnesty International does not point just to middle-eastern countries but has a lot to say about the so-called enlightened west.
Maybe we would like to ignore the millions who are well below the poverty line in the US, the most powerful and richest country in the world, because that wouldn't accord with our preconceptions and distortions/ prejudices of a world that we can't or won't understand. Maybe Enron and the financial scandals of the NHS (including where over a billion pounds has been wasted in unworkable computer projects that nobody appparently sanctioned) isn't enough to label those governments as officially corrupt!
Noone is saying that all is well in the middle-east, but get a perspective please!
