Close shave for Arab Groom: Removes veil to find she has beard!
NY Daily News ^ | Thursday, February 11th 2010, 4:00 AM | BY Tracy Connor

An Arab ambassador escaped married life by a whisker.

The diplomat had his marriage instantly annulled after he tried to kiss his veiled bride and discovered she had a beard and was cross-eyed.

The unnamed groom had never seen the woman's face because she wore a niqab throughout their entire courtship, according to reports.

He freaked out after they signed the marriage contract in Dubai, canceled the reception and went right to an Islamic Sharia court.

He demanded the union be annulled, that $137,000 he'd spent on wedding gifts and expenses be returned, and the bride be examined for "hormonal deficiencies."

"He was absolutely horrified," said a wedding guest, according to London's Daily Mail.

"The bride had a nice personality, but there was a good reason why she was hiding her looks behind a veil.

"A divorce was inevitable, and the groom went straight to court, leaving his new bride in floods of tears."

The ambassador alleged that that his would-be mother-in-law had shown him pictures of his intended's sister to trick him into marrying the homelier woman.

"Every time the couple met, the bride would do her best not to reveal her entire face," a source close to the case told the local Gulf News this week.

The court granted the annulment but did not approve compensation.

A doctor who examined the jilted bride, who is also a doctor, did not find any medical reason for her facial hair...............

Let the buyer beware.

Further proof these people are nuts. He got a blind date that didn't stack up. It is a fair chance he is no prize himself.

"Did you really need to post that?"

We all know what a hag looks like. No need to remind us.

The honorable thing is for the groom to cut his own throat. Allah has spoken!

And I’m sure this wasn’t the only shemale hiding under those burquas.
After seeing all those palestinians cuties I can see why moosies want to cover their females.

She was a real woman. Another story said she went to the doctor for hormonal testing and he said she was normal in all respects.
This is just a sad story for a lot of reasons.

In all honesty namvolunteer, I will never understand why Muslim females allow themselves to be treated as these people do?
Ignorance, and a lack of education?
That’s why I figure the taliban blows up female schools when they get the chance. Keep them uneducated and down on the farm.
