Kuwait is reportedly developing a test that it says will be able to “detect” homosexuals to prevent their entry into that country and other Gulf nations. It is perfectly bizarre, but Kuwait believes that it is possible to have some type of anti-gay detection system. It is not clear what type of test it would be since, despite stereotypes, leaving a Barbra Streisand album in the middle of a rope snare on the floor of the terminal may not catch all gay men. (Indeed, as a Broadway show fan, I would be the first hanging upside down in the Kuwait airport clutching a copy of Funny Girl). I have long wondered where all of those phrenologists went after the collapse of their “science” in the detection of criminals from head shapes.
The reports indicate that our allies in Kuwait believe some clinical test is possible to spot homosexual travelers. It is not clear how they will determine who would be put through the clinical test. However, the potential penalty is great. Homosexuals can receive up to 10 years in jail if they are under 21. Homosexuality is also illegal in Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. However, it is a death penalty offense in Iran, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Yemen and Mauritania. Of course, legalized pedophilia in the married of young girls in some of those countries is not only legal but moral. In Kuwait, an eight-year-old girl dies after her “husband” forces her to have sex but the country is trying to find a magic test to find homosexual travelers.
Always trying to seek out the Asinine, these Gulf States Inspectors.

We saved these guys fro Sadam because? Ah, yes they had a Special Relationship with the Bush family…. And the GOP.
I wonder if Obama will be outraged about this? Nope, I bet neither he nor Kerry will bat an eye lash.
We need to become energy independent now and stop bankrolling these guys. Without all that money, they would just be carry people sinking back into their “gloried” past.
=======================
Everyone knows or should know that oil is the mother of immunity.
I’m just blown away…..

Jake, BOTH (probably)!
Who is Marcus Bachmann? Michele’s husband or second cousin twice removed?
I see some lucrative consulting possibilities for Marcus Bachmann.
The Jews may get a lot more Nobel prizes than we Muslims, but Islam, praise Allah, at least, has its priorities right.
As reported in Al Jazeera’s Science Department, thanks to Saudi investments of hundreds of mllions of dollars, scientists at the University of Abu Dhabi are at last on the brink of developing a device that measures and isolates the magnetic waves that may ultimately enable the operator to assess the level of concentration of gayness through analysis of an individual’s magnetic wavelength density.
By 2017, the scientists believe that gaydar will become a reality.
Professor Mohamed Jah Massaquoi at the University of Abu Dhabi had this to say about recent developments:
“This is the first prototype of a gaydar mechanism in existence. By separating the theta magnetic waves from the lambda-alpha waves into subionic, pulsating clusters to form wavelength vibrating vectors, we believe that we will ultimately be able to measure a subject’s gayness.”
The Onion, right?
They need a “Pedodar” in most of those countries, starting in Kuwait — whose rulers are well-known for their “love” of young girls.
DisgustedOn EastBroadway made a comment above about the use of the middle finger on the left hand. Is this why they wont shake hands with the left hand? What is the meaning of flipping the bird over there? Am I inviting a finger up the ahole if I flip the bird East of Corfu?

Not a shocker, a transducer.
====================
Hmmmm … butt what about quantum tunneling … could thwart or gum up the gaydar … when John and Lindsey go strait through it.

… a method to at least provisionally detect homosexuality, something involving hooking up the genitals and showing homosexual porn.
If the genitals react in any appreciable way, then they are suspect.
===========================
Don’t give the TSA any ideas Gary T.
But no Gary, hooking up the Gentlemen to an electrical shock thingy is torture.
They will probably call in the Large Hardon Collider (@CERN in Geneva) to light up the joint which would reveal devil black holes or Hicks Bazooms …
Anyway, I hope The Google translated all that Arabic into English properly.
Not a shocker, a transducer.
Not to empower these a$$oles in the Gulf states, but I thought there actually was a method to at least provisionally detect homosexuality, something involving hooking up the genitals and showing homosexual porn.
If the genitals react in any appreciable way, then they are suspect.

Muslims in India are pimping their teen and pre-teen daughters for money, selling them into “one month marriages” with rich muslims from other countries. The families get money, the foreigners gets off, the local religious leaders get a cut, and the girl gets raped.

If they wear a tent on their heads, observe which way it tilts when a good looking woman walks by.

Dredd, It must be a time warp in that region. That is the only explanation.
============================
It is definitely warped bro.
I am still puzzled as to why our science guy doods like Bill Nye The Science Guy” wear time warp clothing like Macy’s shoe salesmen.
Anyway, like Blouise said:
It all comes together when we realize that they are “well oiled” and that Vaseline is made from oil.
I think there will be some “false reads” in that Arabian gaydar system when some of the well oiled sheiks in dresses walk through holding hands.
In other news from the middle east, Raw Story reports that a Saudi preacher who raped and killed his five-year-old daughter was convicted. That’s the good news. The rest of the story is, he was sentenced to eight years.
And we are propping these people up, why?
