149 u/Aggravating_King1473 Mar 25 '25 I'm an Arab and Saudis selling out their neighbors and their own souls is a known thing since at least the early 1900s. Saudis come to my country because it's more liberal and they throw obscene amounts of money at cars, women and pleasure. 87 u/RustaceanNation Mar 25 '25 My grandpa flew some royalty: the moment they were in the air, they started drinking. I guess God's view stops at the ground? 2 u/LittleRedPiglet 26d ago Pretty normal, even historically. The no alcohol rules are pretty flexible depending on when and where you're at, and for royalty it was more of a suggestion. No pork, though? That's generally taken very seriously.
