Can you show that this hasn't been the case? No, but when have four men been present witnessing penetration taking place?

This is not applicable to this. The government has every right to allow the carrying out of hudood punishments, even if the government is corrupt. The verdict is decided by judges (qadhis) anyway. If anything, the Saudi government has gotten people OUT of their sentences by bowing down to Western pressure.

A government that is perfect and free of sin is not a prerequisite for any hukum of shari'ah. The king could be swimming in pools of wine and still there would be no issue with having the hudood punishments in place.
There is a hadith in which a companion tried to get some yahudi adulters off the punishment of stoning. The Prophet

became very angry and told the companion if I remember correctly that only punishing the weak and letting the powerful go is a massive corruption. (a cause of much wrong doing and punishment from Allah

) I would say it is a major corruption of the deen and it definetly is a huge disaster when inviting others to Islam because they see this blatant hypocrasy and double standards. I pray that the Saudi regime is protected and empowered to do the good. Ameen.
