#2 That this came from the ArabNews is something of a jaw-dropper - but a good sign. I once had a conversation about "morality tales" with two Saudis I worked with. They told me a nice little story about something or other - and I guessed the "punchline" long before they were finished, which shocked and surprised them quite a bit. I explained that, in the West, a great deal of our "entertainment, from plays to songs to TV, is wrapped around morality tales or truisms. They were completely surprised - they thought Islam's version of this societal priority was unique, heh.

#3 the ArabNews has some reporters/contributors with a definite progressive outlook and some with a more Jurassic outlook. I'm waiting for the purge.

#5 Based on earlier reports he probably rescued her from her own relatives.

#7 sobiesky

I think the purge will ultimately come with the sacking of the two or three of the most progressive writers. That will cow the others and won't look as obvious.
