    One might also say "let's stop judging the Arabs by the actions of a bloodthirsty mob." Just because you find the sight of a lynching disgusting it doesn't mean that you are a culturally imperialistic westerner imposing your own standards, even if they are more civilised. Indeed one might argue that it is patronising to suggest that lynching is "the Arab way", as if they had not developed legal systems and were still cavemen. Plenty of Arabs (if one can generalise about Arabs)including Libyans, were in favour of proper justice on the phone in I heard on Friday). Further , I draw a parallel with the mob murder of two British soldiers in Northern Ireland in 1988. Even if you accept the Republican argument that it is not British territory, are we to say "oh well, that's their way."?
