10. Actually, I do think that it was IKEA's idea because they want to sell in the market.

IKEA had the choice to say "no thanks" to the Wahhabists and not distribute catalogs. Instead they bowed to one of the most repressive, misogynistic regimes in the modern world.

I point the finger of blame on IKEA and the Saudis, not all of Islam.

It's not about "political correctness," it's about attributing the blame where it belongs rather than making a broad brush smear against an entire faith. As a matter of fact, I see it as no different than broad brushed gender smears.
