Play triggers brawl as Islamists storm stage | |
2006-11-29 | |
A play criticising hardliners in Saudi Arabia descended into a brawl when angry Islamists stormed onto the stage, Saudi newspapers and websites reported on Tuesday. Gosh. What were they criticizing them about to set them off like that? As the play Wasati Bila Wasatiya (A Moderate without Moderation) began, a group of men surged forward to stop the performance at a cultural festival in the Yamama College in Riyadh on Monday, Al Hayat newspaper and website Elaph said.
How very... ummm... Islamic. Something tells me it's the hegemonic Olde Tyme Religion in the eduhmacation system. As for the cultural thingy, well, that is their culture. Al Hayat published some pictures of the clashes. Elaph said 17 men were arrested. An Interior Ministry spokesman was not available for comment. "We got nuttin' to say. Nuttin'." There are no public theatre houses or cinemas in Saudi Arabia. Yup. That's why Allan built the causeway to Bahrain. Islamist hardliners believe that liberals are gaining the upper hand in Saudi Arabia. Heh. Any change since Mo Wahhab drew his last breath would be an improvement, er, an outrage, of course. | |

#1 LUCIANNE > a Muslim man was drawn-and-quartered in front of family by angry Radics on Motorbikes. His crime was trying to get females in his family an education. Tore his limbs off. |
