Despite the fact that the West has had a long and positive association with Saudi Arabia we still tolerate this ...
Why ... well they have heaps of oil and money so they can do what they want providing it doesn't impact on us ... which is just stupid.
Please post any links to women driving in Saudi Arabia ....
Go girls go !!

In a sense
I felt back in 96 the attitudes at the time was to wipe the libs out, whereas I saw alot of what their (at the time, before zealousness extremists overtook them) ideas were good, not as a major focal point, but a build in, using common sense.
I felt the conservatives would just white wash these issues, but instead, the zealots took over, and the republicans failed us as well, by doing exactly what they blamed the libs for, by extending thier stays in office, spending sprees, and by doing in a smaller part, exactly what the libs claimed, by using frivolous tax breaks to cronies

Yes ... we must silence the zealots ... start by closing "The Blaze" ...The Blaze only links to articles from news agencies around the world. They don't manufacture anything Reynod.
The commentary and reader comments are decidedly to the right of center but that has nothing to do with where the news story orginated from.
Pull you head out man!

This is why the Saudi's don't want them to drive ...
We can't work out who they are on the speed camera ... or even if the cop is talking to them he isn't sure who they are ...

We probably should look at how the French are going ... otherwise there are going to be heaps of women robbing shops ... banks ... even drive through coffee vendors.
These women in black could possibly inpire a new cartoon charactor ...

The funny thing is, according to pure Islamic Law women are allowed to drive. This is based on the fact that during the time of the Prophet Muhammad women were allowed to ride a donkey/camel/horse whenever.
This law is one based purely on saudi arabian culture, why? I have no idea. Maybe they avoid the law and ride horses everywhere

Indeed, thanks imran. You are exactly right, it is a culture thing. The culture of oppressing women in nearly every facet of society. From driving, to education, to holding a job, to walking down the street unescorted.

Saher, the Saudi traffic cam system uses the car license plates. Doesn't matter who is driving.
One of my Saudi coworkers says women shouldn't drive because they have weak hearts.
You had to be here during Desert Shield to see the culture shock when many Saudis for the first time saw women driving big trucks, carrying weapons, and ordering men around.
For that matter, in front of the main gate of the RSAF base in Dhahran, there is what looks like a mockup of a MRCA Tornado on a pylon. It is not a mockup. It used to be a real aircraft. The Saudi pilot was not going to take orders from a female boom operator in a U.S. tanker.

Are you saying he crashed because he refused to let a female boomer top of his tanks?
