Its stupid and quite frankly, typical Saudi. I am a Muslim. Born and raised. I'm not what passes as a "good" one mind you but I can tell you whatever rulings or fatwas that come out of Saudi Arabia are as valid as grumpy old men talking world issues at a coffee shop.

Hell, not too long ago these Saudis intended to close Masjid al-Nabawi because they felt that it had become and I am not joking when I say this a "Shrine" where Muslims were actually visiting the mosque for the wrong reasons such as to "worship" Muhammad when they should instead be praying to God (or Allah if you prefer).

Quite frankly, the Saudis or at least the ones who seem to be calling the shots have little regard for culture outside of Arabia. Which is surprising since most geek Arabs of my generation seem to love Go Nagai and Grendizer.
