It's very confusing trying to fathom the disconnected logic of our western democracies being so friendly with some of these regimes. In the name of oil, 'strategic' concerns, etc., we look the other way while these 'friends' of ours brutalize people, repress free speech, and rob their citizenry, as in the case of the Saudi Royals.

To be in power, almost anywhere, it seems you need to be able to drop one's integrity at the drop of a hat. I realize that this is how the real world actually works, but when the leaders pretend they are standing firm for their ideals it's a bit laughable.
