It always amuses me how people on this forum discuss visiting countries like China, which have truly appalling human rights records, and no one lifts an eyebrow, but as soon as a country aligned to a certain religion is mentioned, some commentators suddenly remember their Amnesty International membership from their student days!

Also, @executiveclubber, I know you have visited Spain, which has garnered criticism in recent times for authorising the use of rubber bullets (banned under international law) against demonstrators (who have been injured and blinded) and migrants (who have died as a consequence).

Anyway, back to understated elegance …
