Bunch of barbarians. 🤮

Pfft, not even half as bad as the United States if you count the number of children melted in Iran with tomahawk missiles, or all of the extrajudicial killings by police in 2026 thus far (597 according to mappingpoliceviolence.org ).

There’s also currently around 40ish executions scheduled for 2026 in the USA, 15 of which have already taken place.

Birds of a feather…

Yes the days where we thought USA are the good guys are over.
Still Saudi Arabia is doing pretty well in their brutality and barbarism for a bunch of amateurs.
Right now #1 in the world is of course Russia, so I’m sorry for the Americans, but they must accept to only be second place, and not #1. They even have to share the 2nd place with Israel, but to be fair Israel was probably the favorite for 2nd place.

Rookie numbers if you include police killings the US number is much higher

Tbf, this doesn’t count Saudi Police killings and rapes, leaving aside nobody there is actually in a position to report on these things unlike in the US at least.

They’re also 10x smaller, so have to factor proportionality.

If one compared to the US black population (49 million) to Saudi population (36 million) with its over policing, being more likely to die interacting with police, and making 40% of the 2024 currently on death row id say the US per capita is probably higher.
