Islamacare

How I missed a critical health warning from a Saudi cleric is beyond me.

But take this Islamist women's health warning to heart:

In an interview published on Friday on the website sabq.org, Sheikh Saleh bin Saad al-Lohaidan said women aiming to overturn the ban on driving should put "reason ahead of their hearts, emotions and passions". ...

"If a woman drives a car, not out of pure necessity, that could have negative physiological impacts as functional and physiological medical studies show that it automatically affects the ovaries and pushes the pelvis upwards," he told Sabq.

So Code Pink might want to take heed, since the science is settled on this, he said:

"That is why we find those who regularly drive have children with clinical problems of varying degrees," he said.

Ya think?

He did not cite specific medical studies to support his arguments.

But if true, American minivan manufacturers will need to dramatically revise their advertising campaigns, no?

Reason number 57 that the war on terror was called the Long War for a reason.
