Activist Manal Alsharif recently jump-started a campaign to allow Saudi women to drive when she filmed herself behind the wheel. Now Saudi men are planning to put a stop to the fight for women's rights by beating female drivers until they give up.
A Saudi group has launched what it is calling “The Iqal Campaign,” a reference to the rope (iqal) used to hold men's headdresses in place. The group suggests that men use the ropes to hit female drivers.
Women are planning to take to the streets on June 17 to protest the driving ban. According to Algerian news reports, Saudi men have been purchasing extra rope in recent weeks in response. Thousands have joined a Facebook group supporting the “Iqal Campaign.”

Will NOW send a terse memo?
Where is Rosie?
How about Babs?
MoDo?
Ah, but Judith, we American women will fight back. Some of us carry guns, ya know. ;-
How about ol’ Achmed & his buddies being chased by Saudi women who already had ripped their burkas to shreds, showed off their miniskirts and full makeup, then jumped behind the wheel and made these sorry savages run for their lives?
Fewer accidents and more flattened Achmeds that way.

I don’t get it.
The Saudi wimmin are in big, buttoned-up. two-ton, 300hp SUVs whilst the “men” have—what, ROPES??
Thud.
Squissssh.
Game over.
>”Saudi men plan to beat women drivers’’< Honest to God, Saudi Arabia should have a giant fence built all around it and charge admission to see actual vignettes of life in a.d.621. Freakin’ Bronze-Age barbarians.

So you have been reading my mind again....:-)...
Imagine these women with Grethen Wilson's "Red Neck Women" playing in their auto entertainment centers. Better yet, do ya think they would be treating them like merde if they were members of the "2nd Admendment Sisters"? assuming they had a branch their....
Man are these Saudi Men in for it is indeed Sarah become POTUS and she ends up being a roll model for these women....
“And our western women won’t give a crap until they get theis boobs in the ring. They’re spoiled little bitches.”
That’s painting with a pretty broad brush there.
Considering how many women I see texting and driving here in Texas, the Saudis may be on to something...
Those pics make me gasp for air, I can just imagine how it must feel to wear such garments in desert heat. They do truly hate women.
Surprisingly, so are many Saudi husbands. The prohibition on female driving presents a major inconvenience to many Saudi men who must take time off from work to drive their wives to routine appointments and such. There are scores of Saudi citizens of both sexes who absolutely detest the "Vice and Virtue" policies that have been implemented as law. It's long past time they do something about it.
Interesting choice of language to express her belief in freedom and in Christ.
>> And our western women won’t give a crap until they get theis boobs in the ring. They’re spoiled little bitches.
From a traditional perspective, you’d think Western men would have more to say about protecting these women.
Great mental picture...
