Three Arab States Go on Record Condemning Berg's Execution

While the right wing loves to say that the prisoner abuse scandal is no big deal considering Nick Berg's execution sometime last week, three Arab states - Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE - have gone on record, along with the groups mentioned in an earlier post, to condemn Berg's death.

If you look at Arab-language newspapers, you also see the condemnation. Yes, it's sometimes couched in other rhetoric, but look at people like Inhofe and Limbaugh here regarding the Iraqi prison abuse scandal. You're always going to have voices saying something different. But that doesn't mean the Arab world is wrong when they do it and we're glorious and righteous when we do.
