DAMMAM, 30 May 2004 — A cell phone with a camera was responsible for ending a marriage in Dammam, Al-Youm reported. The groom tried to make sure that no cameras were brought into the wedding hall; he hired women guards to search each guest before she entered the hall. One girl, however, managed to sneak a phone in and she took pictures of the bride and groom without either knowing. An old lady realized the girl was taking pictures and snatched the camera. When the groom learned about the incident, he was very angry and when he discovered that the girl taking the pictures was a relative of the bride, he decided not to go through with the wedding.

I would think that, under the circumstances, the religion of peace would require the aggrieved groom to chop off the heads of the bride and her photographer friend and set their decapitated bodies on fire.

It would only be fair. </sarcasm>

Expect to read next that the little girl is killed by her parents for the "family honor".

Pure evil, these people are.

The mainstream media must be affecting me. I was thinking more of the lines of throwing the camera phone in a bucket of water, but then, I realized, IT'S A WEDDING!!!! I had a photographer at mine! You're supposed to take pics at wedding!!! Sheesh, these people....

The lady in question had better be counting her blessings. She was spared a marriage with a bigger than average islamo- jerk.

Now I'm really confused - let's see:

Video cameras + Beheadings = OK

Cellphone cameras + Weddings = Not OK

Guess I've gotta go online and ask the Imam-alam-a-ding-dong about this...

Not quite. One needs to cut off the hands that did evil, and the feet which carried the scoundrel around. They are to be punished in the offending members.

I dropped him a line asking if muslims perfer mustard with pork sausage links at breakfast, and what was the proper way to deal with the grease after frying up some bacon. He never wrote back.

Actually, they were lucky the wedding did not go through, because doubtlessly we would have bombed it, killing the entire party, including all the children. (/sarcasm)

Sounds like the would be bride is a very lucky lady, but just barely. :)

"......The groom does not want his picture taken. I wonder why ...."

That's the big question! Why?? Is there another Mrs somewhere? Inquiring minds want to know.

It could have been worse. A rapist could have crashed the wedding and ogled the bride's chest.
