An article on CNN.com had the following summary on driving and ID photos in various Muslim countries:
"Drivers identification rules in Muslim nations:
Saudi Arabia: Women aren't allowed to drive
Iran: Women wear a traditional chador, which does not cover the face.
Egypt: Women do not cover their face in I.D. pictures
United Arab Emirates: Women do not cover their face in I.D. pictures
Oman: Women do not cover their face in I.D. pictures
Kuwait: Women do not cover their face in I.D. pictures
Qatar: Women do not cover their face in I.D. pictures
Bahrain: Women do not cover their face in I.D. pictures
Jordan: Women can drive if their faces are covered but do not cover their face in I.D. pictures"
In NONE of these countries are ID pictures done with the face covered. This, in the heartland of Islam.

Egypt: Women do not cover their face in I.D. pictures I would send that article to the Florida's D.A. office. It could help to prove that the definition of "Islamic Law" she cites is her's alone, since it is not reflected in major Muslim nations.
I am not joking. Don't assume they have thought of this. The money is to be a Defense Attorney...Prosecutors aren't too bright in many cases (Marcia Clark, etc.)

"In NONE of these countries are ID pictures done with the face covered. This, in the heartland of Islam." ROTFL! Obviously this dingbat is unaware that even in the most rigid of Islamic countries, some things just go beyond silly. Good find.

Have to admit.....I'm surprised CNN had this.
And I'm very surprised..( NOT ) that the media lap dog clymers covering this story haven't pointed this out to the sheeple.
Nice get...Russ.
