Saudi Arabia is a Muslim country. All of its citizens are Muslim. It does not pretend to be a democratic country that allows public displays of other religious symbols. America has a right to only decorate and display Christmas symbols during the month of December, even though there are other religions that also have religious holidays during the same month.

You have a choice whether to come visit and or work in such an Islamic restrictive country. If you don't agree with its rules, don't come. If you do not like the rules and regulations of the national airline carrier, don't fly it. It is as simple as that. No one forces you to. Americans do not like it when foreigners/immigrants come to the US and try to impose their religion and or culture on America, so why do Americans feel like they have the right to impose their religion, culture, laws on other countries?
