Islamic Law is incompatible with our values

The Saudis are supposed to be our friends and allies in the war against Islamic extremism. Based on this article, they clearly have no intention of adopting values compatible with global diversity. Were something similar to happen between Los Angeles and New York (to a person of ANY religion), the officers involved would be fired and perhaps jailed.

Religious police in Saudi Arabia arrest mother for sitting with a man - Times Online:
"A 37-year-old American businesswoman and married mother of three is seeking justice after she was thrown in jail by Saudi Arabia's religious police for sitting with a male colleague at a Starbucks coffee shop in Riyadh.

Yara, who does not want her last name published for fear of retribution, was bruised and crying when she was freed from a day in prison after she was strip-searched, threatened and forced to sign false confessions by the Kingdom's “Mutaween” police."

But was she "water-boarded"? Inquiring minds need to know.

This is simply absurd - Starbucks should close all it's franchises over there in protest - but they won't.
