Saudi Historian: U.S. Women Drive Because They Don't Care If They're Raped

During a talk show in Saudi Arabia, the historian Saleh Al-Saadoon claimed that the reason why women in other countries, like the U.S., are able to drive themselves around is because that western societies don't care if these women get raped. While in Saudi Arabia, the government wishes to protect the women if they are "stuck by the roadside and get raped." The two hosts, a man and woman, were both shocked at this statement. When Saleh saw their reactions, he followed up his statement by saying that women are treated by queens, because they are driven around by the male chauffeurs.That led the male host to ask him if he wasn't afraid of the chauffeurs then raping the women. To solve this problem, Saleh replied with using foreign female chauffeurs.  This ridiculous response led the female host to say, "Seriously?"
