I think you have them confused with a relatively free country, like the US.

The Saudi gov't is much more similiar to a fascist gov't like Italy in WWII or Stalin's Soviet Union. The Saudis monitor and control EVERY aspect of life there-the upside is the chance of getting mugged, assaulted or killed is almost 0. That is why 911 happened here, and why there have been basically no successfull terrorist attacks in Saudi.
