Disgusting! Bias in Media!
Reader comment on item: Saudi Religious Leader Calls for Slavery's Legalization

Submitted by Ted Kravitz (United States), Jul 22, 2007 at 13:23

I am so sick and disgusted, with the world's ignorance of radical and savage Islamic practices. If these "slaves" would be white or not coming from Sudan-Darfur area-then the world would have already been at war with the Saudis. America (U.S.) would not be making the Saudi royal family and their friends mega-wealthy and rich.

We're not even talking about the role that Arab-Muslims play in the "blood diamond" trade-there was alot more to that story than Hollywood was willing to show. Of course a film from the U.S. and Hollywood would place all the blame on Europeans and African rebels and leave out Americas and Arab slave trading involvement.
