#1 Like the old quip goes, the sexual revolution is over and sex has clearly won.

#3 This furor about evil Western influence mystifies me. We're talking about belly dancing -- IT WASN"T INVENTED IN HOBOKEN.

#4 Dagnabit, where are the LINKS to these seductresses? How am I supposed to be seduced without the links?

#5 banned some foreign and Arab videos

Poor Britney, Shakira & Christina. And I guess the Britney-Madonna kissy thing was out of the question.

#6 Is there no end to your demands? Here's Nancy... and Haifa... This is the best I could do for Roubi.

#7 To rev up the RPM's on those spinning turbans, you could show them Pandora in her "genie" impersonation. (NSFW)

#8 like .com (sort of) said, they need to have their impropriety scales reset -- maybe toss in an Aguilera or mid-career Madonna video occasionally (just to listen to, of course).

#9 Hey, back in '92 I couldn't even change into shorts and drive to my softball games - had to change in the truck in the parking lot inside the compound. We were the Infidels, of course.
Note: Every time we played a Phillipino team they would bus in their fans, saw as many as 200 screaming cat-calling loonies in the stands, as every game against a US team was on a par with The World Series or Olympic Finals. No Saudis watched any games that I recall. They certainly didn't play.

So a Reset? Yeah, I'd say so! ;-)

#11 SH, you're so cruel...

Ahem. In the interests of cultural research, I feel the need to point out that Ms Haifa actually has her own website. I can see why it's got some undies twisted - from some of her pics it's apparent that she's already gyrated her way on to Fred's Corruption Scale Phase 2.

#12 Damn. I couldn't see it because I have Flash turned off...

#14 Can see how some would be offended by the content of Haifa's website. Others would be more offended by this blond.

#15 Fred, (re Haifa website) you have missed the definitive Flash Craptacular! All those buttons scattered about labeled "More->>" -- and I kept clicking on them and never *saw* more! She does expose her shoulders, tho...

And SH -- that was just *evil* (I'll admit, though, that I searched a bit for a decent picture of Ruby from "The Fifth Element" for Roubi...)

#17 Anyone remember Ofrah Hasa (sp) from Morocco--she had a big MTV hit in the late 80's
