HORROR: sauditas vão cruxificar e decapitar jovem ativista, e UK os apóia para Direitos Humanos.
David Cameron has repeatedly refused to explain why the British government agreed to a “squalid” deal with Saudi Arabia, as the country prepares to behead and crucify a teenager for engaging in pro-democracy protests during the Arab Spring. In an excruciating interview with Channel 4’s Jon Snow, the Prime Minister floundered for a response when questioned on therecently exposed secret deal with the Saudis to allow both nations’ election to the UN Human Rights Council in 2013. “This sounds a bit squalid for one of the most human rights abusing regimes on earth,” Mr Snow comments.
Asked three times by Mr Snow why – if Mr Cameron “completely disagreed” with the repressive state over their “punishment routines” as he claimed earlier – the UK had agreed to the deal with the Saudi government the PM claimed: “Well, I’ve answered the question.” “Well, that isn’t an answer is it? I mean we have done a horrid deal,” Mr Snow responds. Finally, the Conservative leader claimed it was because the British government has “a relationship with Saudi Arabia.” “It’s because we receive from them important intelligence and security information that keeps us safe," Mr Cameron said. "The reason we have the relationship is our own national security. There was one occasion since I’ve been prime minister where a bomb that would have potentially blown up over Britain was stopped because of intelligence we got from Saudi Arabia.” “Of course it would be easier for me to come on your programme and say: ‘I’m not having anything to do with these people, it’s all terribly difficult etcetera etcetera.’ For me, Britain’s national security and our people’s security comes first,” he added.
