You can't think of any other reasons apart from racism why people would think differently of Saudi Arabia vs Norway?

You mean aside from tarring all Muslims or all Saudis as the same as ISIS (a millennial cult) and Norway isn't as pure as you might think - Scandinavia kept on with eugenics long after the rest of the world recoiled in horror

You seem to be picking very narrow but randomly arbitrary things to compare both countries with, or making wild assumptions about what others would use to compare them on.

How about an overall view of broader things like human rights, corruption, democracy etc?

Do we not keep on with eugenics individually? Most people, all else being equal, would prefer a healthier, more physically attractive partner.
