Here’s Christmas in Saudi Arabia,

Here’s Christmas in Saudi Arabia, courtesy of Best of the Web and the Washington Post:
“At another card shop, an Indian employee reaches beneath the counter to pull out a half-dozen religious and secular Christmas cards, his eyes darting around his empty shop and out the window.
“There would be trouble if caught: ‘They ask where you got them,’ he says. The ever-vigilant religious police have confiscated cards in the past, he said, and have even been known to haul shopkeepers away to be questioned about where they got such materials.”
A very merry Christmas to our friends the Saudis.
