Weird, and this guy is an (unspecified) ambassador. The Mooselimb/Arab culture is crazy at the top, as well as in the Arab street.

You guys are killing me! So do you think she should have come with a money back guarantee? Apparently Sharia common law doesn’t cut it here.

Oddly enough, your post was right under a post to that article about the camel beauty contest in the UAE.

If you look really really hard, you might see a beard.

By mohammed’s greasy beard, he thought she was a Nigerian Dwarf, imagine his dismay when he lifted the veil and found his bride was human.

Synchronicity, I suppose.

Unfortunately for the men, in Arab society there is no “test drive”.
In the ambassador’s case, the annulment is everything; the non-compensation is nothing.

Well imagine that. In a country where marriage is arranged the man can get an annulment but the women are stuck with the animals that are arranged for them. Somehow that doesn’t seen right!
