Honestly, lets face it, some muslims are arrested in the west merely for practicing their religion.

However, this was "citizen on citizen" - but trawl HRW for other stories if you will.

Well that’s not true entirely ECK, I have lived in Riyadh for 5 years (1990-1995) and I stayed in a entirely American compound
They have a right to live as they want to but what I'm saying is this sort of justice affects their entire populace and they identify it as justice and thus are brainwashed to believe what is right and wrong without questioning what the world practises.
SAD~!!

Where is a story about the GOVERNMENT raiding a Mosque and arresting those inside for practicing there religion?

Being arrested for praticing your religion is wrong in any country. If this had have happened in America to Muslims the entire board would have been outraged and calling for entire world to rise up and kill us all as is so often asked of the entire world by many members....LOL.
What I find unusual is the king of this country was welcomed a few days ago with open arms by our President who rode the Christian Rights Coat tails into the whitehouse and claims anyone against him is a heathen.
Do you think this was even mentioned during the meeting?
The other thing I would like to point out is this is what you get when Government and religion mix. That is why or founding fathers seperated the two.
