So? Christianity and Judaism are disrespected here all the time. Why is it only such a terrible thing when it "happens" to other religions?DarkOfKnight
What does Christianity and Judaism have to do with this? I stand up against disrespect of all religions... but I guess you didn't know that.

Good for you, and remember I don't come in this section much so I don't know you. The point was Christianity and Judaism get attacked all the time, so why is it only a big deal when it happens to Islam? In means of fairness shouldn't we be equally offended if they are disrespected? I have seen people burn Bibles, where is the anger over that?
OH NO A SWORD ON A FLAG? WHAT SHALL WE EVER DO? Let's take it down so it doesn't injury anybody. That is one of the stupidest things I have heard all day.
Is your company American? I can completely understand your coworkers disdain considering Saudi Nationals have murdered over 3000 American citizens with impunity within the last 10-15 years...
but yeah this is pretty stupid. hell even they are racist, its bad for business anyway. why wouldn't u wanna do business with the Saudi's, get a piece of that colossal oil money lol.
why do these Saudi's need your business so bad now?
Could just as easily go do business elsewhere and you can go look for other clients.
It's the Islamic motto and the sword is the House of Saud. Saud under God basically.
Even then if you don't like how Saudi governs itself then why do business with us at all.
EDIT:
Plus for the record, how would the general public in America know what the Arabic script even means. It's just unintelligible script written on a flag to a non-Arab speaker. The most i can see the most thin-skinned person could get offended by is the sword.

With that logic, do you know how many deaths have been caused by American nationals.
You and your company can kiss Saudi's money goodbye. It would be hilarious of some of the workers got laid off the company because they don't have enough money to employ them, let's see how proud you guys will be then.
That is moronic and not worth losing business over, the place is a private company and they can hang up what they want, the guy who complained can go suck a lemon
It's not like the flag was trying to force it's ideals onto the company or anything. If the workers get offended by the flag I have no idea why you do business with Saudi Arabians.

Yep, terrorists not sanctioned by any government committed 9/11 killing approximately 3000 people, whilst 3rd party figures indicate that the U.S government's involvement within Iraq and Afghanistan have killed more than 6000000 (6 million) innocent civillians due to violent acts of aggression

That figure seems extremely inflated.
the business can do what they want with their lobby. seems like a stupid thing to get offended by though. but i guess people just like to look for ---- to get pissed about.
As Xaos mentioned, I am sure your company will enjoy losing contracts with Saudi businesses after this rather childish thing your company did, Videodogg...
I highly doubt any business will be lost. I'd be surprised if a Saudi enterprise or government even consider flying the Saudi flag as part of a contract. And they probably do have a contract now. OT is so righteously indignant over the smallest things....
Would be awesome if you lost your job because they had to cut back on staff because they lost money via that decision.
Would be so, so awesome.

You are so right....I mean the company was selected solely because they'd fly a Saudi flag. That why most businesses enter into contracts. How could they be so shortsighted.....

C'mon man, it would be awesome. It would be like some kind of poetic justice if they got themselves laid off.

Conversely what if all the other contracts pulled out because they saw this company as promoting a specific religion?
How can you not see how this could offend people who work for the company? It's not like they hung a cross in place of the flag.
What would you guys say if a Saudi business decided to take down a flag that had a Christian saying? I would bet a lot of money most of you guys would defend them.

Yeah I doubt their was a stipulation in the contract requiring the flag being displayed. It was most likely the U.S. company displaying the flag as a way to show that they do business with other countries, much in the same way my college displays flags of the countries of past and present foreign students in our Admissions building.

why would you be proud? thats offensive what you guys did, you guys did not need to take it done. Its just a harmless flag that its going to change anything or cause any harm. Your company is racist.
I bet Jesus must be proud. Did you guys sign the american nationalanthem after taking it down?

And I bet many of those who do not take offence to this thread would somehow feel offended if it was a Christian symbol. The perceived double standards go both ways.

...the hell?
