As much as this has managed to keep out of the East/West blame game, you have to bring up crap like that, don't you...
I think I would rather put the blame squarely on the shoulders of the Saudi rulers, in this case - the reason? Because they have kept their people living in a bubble for far too long - as with all the countries in the region - did the rulers really believe that things like this wouldn't happen.
Its been going on for centuries, probably, but kept quite - shhhh... don't say anything to rock the boat - the less people know, the better off they are - ignorance is bliss, as they say - if Saudi had been more forth right and brought things like this to light earlier on, then maybe this man, and other like him, will be brought to justice sooner - which in countries in the GCC, should be a much easier task, since their intelligence operations are quite advanced.
