![]() The image of Princess Hayfa bint Abdullah al-Saud, in the driver’s seat wearing leather gloves and high heels, is on the front cover of Vogue Arabia’s June edition, published as the conservative kingdom prepares to lift a driving ban on women. The issue is dedicated to the "trailblazing women of Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... " and lauds the reforms launched by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman ... ![]() , who has sought to loosen social restrictions in the conservative kingdom and curb the powers of religious hardliners. |
