Tolerance

A man was nearly executed by Saudi authorities for straying into a Muslims only area in Medina:
Jojo, employed in an electronic shop in Jeddah, ran into trouble while rushing in a cab to a hospital where his wife had given birth to a child. The taxi driver took a wrong route and strayed into the prohibited area, his family members said. The Indian was then spotted by religious volunteers, who handed him to police.

Compare this to the worst case of government discrimination in western societies - I dare you to find a comparably egregious example.
