FEMINISM IN THE MIDDLE EAST

Introducing the first ever Saudi Arabian Women's Basketball Team.  Saudi Arabia is hoping to debut the country's first women's basketball team in the London, England Olympic Games 2012.
You see, Saudi Arabia's monarch, King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques (Al-Masjid al-Ḥarām in Mecca and Al-Masjid al-Nabawī in Medina) cares about feminism 100%.  Another Saudi Arabian athlete, Dalma Rushdi Malhas, has entered the Women's Equestrian event in the 2010 Youth Olympic Games in Singapore.  I'm not sure if she's going to compete in the actual 2012 Summer Olympic Games in London, England though.
