What? Saudi Arabia Doesn't Recognize Israel?

As much as it pains me to link to The Huffington Post, its where this article seems to have originated. Ariana Huffington is a piece of work - she used to speak convincingly as a conservative, then decided there was more money to be made being a liberal, then sold her Huffington Post for an obscene profit (something liberals are supposed to be against) and left all the little people (namely bloggers) that helped her build the news outlet high and dry.

Anyway, on to the article, which reports that Delta Airlines has partnered with Saudi Arabian Airlines to begin sharing flights in 2012. But recent details of the partnership have emerged and should concern us all. Saudi Arabia is governed my strict Islamic law and is one of those backward-ass 7th century regimes that does not recognize Israel as a sovereign nation. Religious items like the Christian Bible and the Jewish yamuke can be confiscated at Saudi customs at the airport.

Too bad I'm not Secretary of State! I'd tell our shiek friends in the burning sands that the first bible or yamuke confiscated will result in a total food embargo of U.S. food imports. Try growing food in oil rich sand and see how many people you feed!

In case you were informed by M3 that Islam is the "Religion of Peace" and a tolerant religion, you are hereby informed that you were misinformed.
