They said, they said.  "as Shiite Muslims accuse the Sunni-led government of persistent discrimination, an allegation the government denies. "  This is hilarious. So basically the story of repression and discrimination in Saudi Arabia is now a pure matter of an allegation.  Western media are inching toward their standards for covering Israel in their coverage of Saudi Arabia.  And when it comes to women, they should write: "women in Saudi Arabia accuse the male-led government of persistent discrimination, an allegation that the government denies.  Hilarious, really.  House of Saud never knew how much they would benefit in free PR in the West once they align publicly with Israel.
