Women crowded out of Mecca

Our good friends in Saudi Arabia have thought of yet another way to suppress women--by banning them from the Grand Mosque at Mecca. Why? Because it is getting too crowded. So naturally, the solution is to ban women. Though is supposed to be a possible plan, the word is out that it is already a practice.

Saudi women are not allowed to drive, and they cannot attend school, get a job, travel, or stay at a hotel without permission from a male guardian. And just for the record, a bunch of them attacked the U.S. on September 11, 2001.
