When a flight leaves Saudi airspace, the first two things that happen are most of the men order alcohol and the women change into Western attire. Then on the return flight just before the plane reaches Saudi airspace, the women change back.

Same with Iran.

Oh dear G-d. Almost as bad as when we had a bunch of animals for our children’s nativity story at the church. That was kind of awkward...

Why is that llama standing on top of the other llama?

Where? Oh, oh my...

Up to 70% of files exchanged between Saudi teenagers' mobile phones contain pornography, according to a study in the ultra-conservative Muslim kingdom.

How does a Saudi define "porn"? A picture of a girl without a veil?

Without a threshold definition, this article is useless.

This has to scare the crap out of the mullahs. Saudi teens are going to grow up worshipping porn, not allah, and probably won’t tolerate any restrictions on it when they outnumber true believers ten to one.

There was some news earlier about Iran taking control of all the cell phone repeaters and screening for porn.

"The flash memory of mobile phones taken from teenagers showed 69.7% of 1,470 files saved in them were pornographic and 8.6% were related to violence," said report author Professor Abdullah al-Rasheed

And I'll wager Mr. al-Rasheed and Co. saved every one of them...for evidence, of course.

Why do I think their definition of porn may be different than some other people?
