Make sure you click the "Publication Continues" link at the boittom of each page, there are 4 and the first page is quite tame compared to some of the rest... Goes on to explain why they don't allow any other religions but Islam to be practiced in Saudi Arabia, why women can't drive, their views on the death penalty, why their courts don't have juries and often no lawyers, etc.

It's not long or difficult, but highly interesting.

Q: But we have now reached a universal version, a universal declaration of Human Rights.

A: Yes, it came, in effect, as a response to the atrocities committed in the West. The West produced Nazism and Marxism and the ensuing deaths of millions and millions of innocent human beings. Many people around the world look at the West’s human rights protestations and say: "Too little! Too late!" .They share Ghandi’s sentiments. When asked about Western civilization he said: "It would be a good idea."
