Egypt's "halal" tourism push: ban alcohol and bikinis

from The Age:

"Much of the buzz has been sparked by calls from the ultra-conservative Salafists, standing under the banner of the Al-Nur party, for tourism that is 'halal,' a reference to that which is allowed in Islam.

"Alcohol, bikinis and mixed bathing would be banned.

"'A five-star hotel with no alcohol, a beach for women -- sisters -- separated from men in a bay where the two sides can enjoy a vacation for a week without sins,' influential cleric Yasser Burhami was quoted by The Arabist website as recommending on Sunday.

"'The tourist doesn't have to swim with a bikini and harm our youth.'"

This coming from a religion that routinely grooms youth to ebcome suicide bombers.

Joe, you hit the nail on the head. A religion which finds bikinis and mixed gender in public wrong but has no qualms about murdering innocent people...what's wrong with this picture? EVERYTHING.

What's also sick is that mothers are proud to sacrifice their children "for Allah" and would send every single one of them to be suicide bombers for their "honorable mission" of eliminating infidels.

I'm a mother and can't fathom that logic at all. It's a sickness that pervades the Arab culture.

Who are Arabs?

All tourist wanting to go to Egypt.Welcome to Kenya.Alchohol flows,mixed bathing allowed etc.Enjoy a one week safari and a week at our sandy white beaches!

Killing your own daughters and stoning rape victims...good

Bikinis and booze...bad

Hmmmm. Quite a "religion" they have there.

Without Tourists the Egyptian economy won't last long, they don't have any oil, only the Suez canal that generates some income and the Tourist industry that's all.

Let them destroy the pyramids as some islamic group was claiming to do once they gain power in Egypt, and Egypt will astonish even Allah in her own chosen backwardness. Mule-slims will prove how backwareded they really are, no "islamophobia" needed....

Yeah well, the whay these Islamic fundamentalists think is, that they will destroy anything that predates Islam, so the pyrimids will soon be blown up anyway, and that was the only thing worth looking at in Egypt so...leave them to it...lets see how well they do with ZERO tourist dollars.....I agree with the other poster, Kenya is awesom, beautiful; beaches and tourist activities....Kenya can enjoy the tourist income!

No wonder .... M.E tourist are the most pervert tourist compare to others. All this time, their lust are caged by their own government!!!

I think that western cohabitation problem and Muslim world's women problem. Because government make unnecessary regulation on marriage.

Western over regulation:

Under US laws, anyone agreeing to get civil marriage agree that:
1. He doesn’t have right to have sex with his wife. Marital rape is illegal. So it’s not part of the contract. Financial support is part of the contract though irrelevant of wife’s performance.
2. His wife has right to have sex with anyone else because that’s legal.
3. His wife can divorce him any time she wants. No fault divorce is the law now.
4. Should his wife produce children that’s not his, he is responsible to support that child.
5. Should his wife get a divorce and cohabit with other males, he still has to keep supporting that wife in life alimony.

That is the justification that government used to extort life time alimony and child support from suckers. Government main argument is,“Well, you agreed to all these when you get married.”

Do Christians really think that God want us to agree to all those terms before we can have sex?

M.E gave liberal market option for men, but not for women.

If government stop these all stupid regulation... all problem solve. Let the market decide what is the best marriage!

Do you really think that stupid big government that can not regulate their own debt... are able to regulate people social live?

People marry to have children in wedlock.
If you don't want to have children at all, why marry?

Abolish marriage and let people have the life they chose, with or without a contract. Look at the divorce numbers, is't that proof enough that marriage is an outdated institution that shouldn't be carried to the next century?

In any case the system in the West is more civilised than the barbaric slavery in the mule-slim world where a woman is not more than a camel. She feeds you and you have sex with her.... LOL

Look at the proof that muslims are civilised people:

Sex? Money? Private version of government welfare subsidize from husband / wive? Free maid (that must be wive)? Pension fund from children? Good investment (i mean rich husband)?

Every body have different target for marriage.

Only this couples hundred years, that we have government regulation marriage system. A government that can not regulate their own debt. And still trying to regulate marriage.

Maybe Jesus endorse social security, obamacare (Thank god.. Obamacare don't hit me) or medicaid. But i doubt, that Jesus endorse government marriage regulation.

There is nothing wrong with western system marriage. But they have one problem ........ A government that can not regulate their own debt. And still trying to regulate marriage.

Muslim wedding problem is .... more liberal market option for the male. And less free market for women. That's why some white dude want to be jihadist.

If you so love big government wedding regulation. You can take a look at Philipine. A corrupt government that try to criminalize divorce. Is it good? Hell no .... rate of cohabitation goes up.

Indonesian marriage style is other option beside normal Muslim nation ..... with less government regulation, more free market option (Monogamy, polygamy, many form of contract marriage). Result? Rich guy happy, poor girl happy and rate of cohabitation goes down.

But i hope i can see less government regulation in Indonesian Marriage system. So we have option for polyandry or many free option of contract marriage.

Is not perfect, but it much better than over regulation big government style.

If you love big government and nanny state. You will love Santorum, since he want to regulate oral sex ;D

Max, tell Kenya I'm on my way .... and I'm bringing the other four people that were supposed to be going to Egypt too!

Not knowing how to explain a poem doesn't mean you are a bad policeman. What has managing debt to do with "regulatin" marriage?

When the thousands of tourists stop coming and spending money there, I hope "allah" can feed all of you when the goverment there has no money to do it.
You need to understand, tourism in some countries...is what brings in the money the economy there needs to operate for the people. When the tourist stop coming...the money stops coming in. And the population that depended on the tourist dollars....will notice it.
