I would point out that Qatar promotes tourism to Qatar and allows serving alcohol in various of its international five-star hotels.

>>As opposed to a hiker who falls off a cliff in front of companions or one who is roped to his companions and pulls them all off the mountain?<<

A solo hiker who falls off a cliff i front of his companions can be rescued by them. One who is roped to them can hold them up (the point of being roped together).

And you are right, my examples are too soft. Any westerner — especially women — who goes to a muslim country is like a white guy going alone to Harlem or South Central with dollar bills hanging out of his pockets and a “#BlackLivesSuck” T-Shirt.

Well, try it out for your self. I didn’t ask about “should” be I ask about what is.

Crime is not caused by a victim being stupid and even thinking of the victim as stupid. But being stupid does help one become a victim and criminals assuredly prefer stupid victims over smart ones.
