"They don't call it FOX news for nothing!"

Nice one, that gave me a good chuckle. It's true, she's a looker, and a talented anchor to boot!

Yet some of the prettiest women in the Middle East are from Syria and Lebanon.

I hope she surprises me, some of the refugees from CNN presently on Fox have not impressed me. I can stil see Liberalism raising its ugly head from time to time in their reports although not as blatanly as when they were with CNN.

A British officer in Bosnia confided to me that the reason (according to HIM, not me - I take no position on the matter) why "Moslem women are so ugly is that the veils they wear do not allow for 'beauty selection' normal everywhere else".

Persian women are very exotic looking and HOT. Ditto for Jewish babes with their dark hair and exotic features...

excuse me, I have to go wipe the drool off my mouth now...

he sure breaks the stereo type of women from that part of the world being ugly as sin. What a knock out!

The vast majority of persian women are knockouts. Like asiam women it is hard NOT to find a looker. The Lebanese protest babes proved the same for arabs too.

Iran must be full of hotties such as Rudi Bakhtiar.

Yes it is. Collection of photos collected from the net.

All scenarios for a conflict with Iran over its nuke program look like no-win situations. Instead, what if the women of Iran all decided that they would no longer be treated as second class citizens? Imagine, one morning, every Iranian woman takes to the streets without wearing the chador on their heads while chanting something like "I am woman, hear me roar in numbers to big to ignore". Women in Iran demanding their civil rights could topple the regime and spare the world a dangerous conflict.

The Lebanese did that. The Persians could too.

"Ugly as sin"?? OH let me correct you.........

Iranian women are gorgeous. Drop-dead gorgeous. Many Middle Eastern women are.........olive skin, brown, green.......even blue eyes. Beautiful women.

Problem is, their damned culture covers them up like undesired stumps in the yard. It's one, huge, horrific waste.
