25 of the 180 in the first 6 months this year so far are foreign nationals.

I was going to ask what percentage were just visitors, specifically tourists.

That place just hates everybody. Gay? Death. Lesbian? Death. Drugs? Death.
I have an idea! Let's validate their regime by organizing big football tournament there. That will show them!
- Don't bring any drugs to the tournament.
God dammit I just read record high over drugs and completely misinterpreted what this story is about. Time for me to go to bed.
Saudis are the USA ally so nothing will happen to them
- A country has to execute a lot of people per year to suffer some form of international consequences.
