So You Want To Play Rough! [Reader Post]

Several big cities feel the results of their sanctimonious stand against Arizona. In an unprecedented move, either at Obama’s direction or to show solidarity with the Democrat’s push for new voters, several large cities, San Diego, San Francisco, and Seattle have decided to boycott Arizona in a symbolic action that is nearly meaningless since the same cities trade with China, a country that buys and sells illegal women immigrants from Korea as Quasi-wives and as sex slaves.

Thousands of North Korean fugitives living and hiding in China are forced to become slave labourers or prostitutes, or are sold and resold to Chinese men as “sex toys”, campaigners said yesterday.

There are between 10,000 and 300,000 Korean refugees hiding in China and monitors for Human Rights Watch (HRW) found those they spoke to were resigned to a sub-human existence in China. Many fear they will be captured and sent home to serve a life sentence in one of North Korea’s notorious prison camps, where inmates are reportedly experimented on with chemicals, starved or shot.

Of course selling women as sexual slaves is no reason for our President not to bow and grovel to their leaders, since Saudia Arabia and China both approve of slavery for women as long as it is only for sexual purposes. Here is an account of an American nurse who worked for a Saudi Prince and observed the sexual slavery o both women and children in Saudi Arabia.

While living and working as a registered nurse at the King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center, in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Mary Doreen had the unique opportunity, along with a colleague, to be the first Westerners to cross the threshold of a high-ranking, royal household.

In her new book, Surreal in Saudi, Mary documents how Sheik Saleh Al-Fawzan, a famous and revered religious authority in Saudi Arabia, professes: “Slavery is part of jihad, and jihad will remain as long as there is Islam.”(World Net Daily, 2003).

Mary shares how the endorsement of slavery from religious authorities allows for broad interpretation so, understandably, pressure from the Western World to abolish slavery is considered a ‘thorn in the side’ for most Saudis.

In pursuit to pacify the West, the ruling members of Saudi Arabia vehemently deny the existence of slaves, and in their arrogance, redefine it.

In actuality, Women from Third World countries are purchased to serve in aristocratic households throughout the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. They come from the Sudan, Thailand, Ethiopia, India and the Philippines and are frequently bought and sold, their families and extended family are given cash in exchange for one of their children. They are eager to sell a daughter to benefit the family, believing their child will live in luxury with a Saudi prince.

For the vulnerable, this is a dream come true, but in reality, is a farce. A Saudi prince who purchases a slave girl believes he committed a charitable act by rescuing a family from abject poverty while delivering his slave into a fate worse that death. He brings young girls into his palace, dumps them in damp basements without so much as a blanket for cover at night. She is lucky to have food, is often raped, tortured and persecuted by her owners and members of the royal household, both male and female.

In the Human Rights News, 2004: “In 1962, then-King Faisal abolished slavery in Saudi Arabia by royal decree. Over forty years later, migrant workers in the purportedly modern society that the kingdom has become continue to suffer extreme forms of labor exploitation that sometimes rise to slavery-like conditions. Their lives are further complicated by deeply rooted gender, religious, and racial discrimination. This provides the foundation for prejudicial public policy and government regulations, shameful practices of private employers, and unfair legal proceedings that yield judicial sentences of the death penalty. The overwhelming majority of the men and women who face these realities in Saudi Arabia are low-paid workers from Asia, Africa, and countries in the Middle East.”

Unfortunately, for these cities that are so anxious to impose their hypocritical views on Arizona, they are feeling the economic reaction to their condemnation of Arizona and its effort of preventing the loss of their state to an alien invasion by implementing federal law at the state level.

Arizona tourists are biting back against San Diego for its city council’s decision to boycott the Grand Canyon State over its immigration law signed by Gov. Jan Brewer last month.

Would-be tourists have notified the San Diego Convention and Visitors Bureau and some hotels that they are canceling their scheduled travel to the coastal vacation destination, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune.

According to the newspaper, the convention bureau has received about 25-30 emails from Arizona residents, with some saying they are canceling their reservations and taking their money elsewhere.

That has tourism officials urging Arizonans to consider the resolutions as merely symbolic and local politics at work.

“We’re in a very tough environment already because of everything else going on, and we don’t need another negative impact to our industry,” ConVis President Joe Terzi told the Union-Tribune. “This affects all the hardworking men and women who count on tourism for their livelihoods, so we’re saying, don’t do something that hurts their livelihoods.”

It is ironic that trying to impose your will on someone else, through economic hardship, suddenly becomes unfair when it bites you in the ass.
