In California this week, a Saudi princess was charged with human trafficking case, enslaving maid. Muslim royalty keeping slaves in the US.The Saudi consulate bailed her out -- of course. Slavery under Islam is sanctioned.
Meshael Alayban, 42, was released Thursday after the Saudi consulate delivered a check for the full bail amount to the Orange County Sheriff's department, Lt. Jeff Hallock said Friday.
Robert Spencer explains, "Muhammad owned slaves, and the Qur'an takes the existence of slavery for granted, even as it enjoins the freeing of slaves under certain circumstances, such as the breaking of an oath: “Allah will not call you to account for what is futile in your oaths, but He will call you to account for your deliberate oaths: for expiation, feed ten indigent persons, on a scale of the average for the food of your families; or clothe them; or give a slave his freedom” (5:89).
While the freeing of a few slaves here and there is encouraged, however, the institution itself is never questioned. Slavery was taken for granted throughout Islamic history, as it was, of course, in the West up until relatively recent times. Yet the impetus to end slavery moved from Christendom into Islam, not the other way around. Because the Qur'anic word cannot be questioned, and the book does not contain the Biblical principles that led to the abolition of slavery in the West, there has never been a Muslim abolitionist movement. Slavery ended in Islamic lands under pressure from the West."
And we are seeing more and more of these cases in the US.
Bail? Like this shitbag isn't a flight risk? Give me a break. I am guessing the authorities would rather have the cash and have her disappear than to have a trial.

It's slowly going away. These idiots spend it like it will keep coming in and it isn't going to. I have read a couple article about serious panic over there about what will happen when the oil money finally dries up. Right now the US has more oil reserves than that stinking sand pile.

Time for a whine summit?
The bureaucracy: the new fourth branch of government. The bureaucracy is permanent, unaccountable, unelected and choking us like a weed. The bureaucrat exists, generating nothing of value, using perceived problems to justify his existence.
A story about Saudi Royalty owning slaves in the U.S. hardly surprises me.
The Saudis have owned slaves in America in plain sight for some time now. Two of those slaves just happen to be occupying our White House at the present.
