From what I understand, the conflict between the two is so extreme that Saudi Arabia doesn't even allow you to visit the country if you've so much as set foot on Israeli soil. That's a pretty extreme policy. The only other country that has that is Eritrea and they may as well be the African equivalent of North Korea, so the fact that Saudi Arabia has such policy makes me wonder how they could just look past the fact that the US provides such a tremendous amount of military aid to Isreal.
My best guess on this one is that the Israelis look post it because the US provides them with weapons and funds their military. On the side of the Saudis the only thing that I can come up with is that they want the states to keep buying their oil so they just look the other way so that they can profit.
Just recently I’ve warmed up to the idea of having a prison system like Norway where we focus on rehabilitating criminals. My online friend from Norway has told me a lot about it. On the other hand, I’ve spoken to Muslims who have brought up how the crime in countries like Saudi Arabia is lower compared to the United States but I’ve noticed that their punishments are “harsher” and more focused on punishing and scaring off people from committing a crime. Is the harsh punishments the reason people in Saudi Arabia for example commit less crimes? Also, which system has shown to be the most effective? From the research, and talking to people from other countries it seems like the Nordic approach is effective in reducing crime.
With the recent updates, can a fully vaccinated resident travel from the United States to Saudi Arabia?

On August 5th, Saudi Arabia announced the expulsion of the Canadian ambassador and the staff in the country over a tweet directed at the arrest of Samar Badawi, a prominent feminist and advocate for women’s rights in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the sister of Raif Badawi, another dissident in Saudi Arabia. How will the use of social media change international politics?
