So we're all agreed they shouldn't have been kissing in public.

But the issue about the marriage is strange. As Brit said, how come they were allowed into the country if their marriage wasn't recognised? Why were they even asked what their religion was? Why does Qatar have a right to dismiss someone's marriage as null and void just because it doesn't fit in with their ideals. Abiding to a countries laws out of respect for their culture is one thing, but to arrive here and find out that they don't recognise your marriage is really something else.
