According to Reuters, “[t]he legs are long, the eyes are big, the bod[y's] curvaceous.”
“Contestants in this Saudi-style beauty pageant have all the features you might expect anywhere else in the world, but with one crucial difference — the competitors are camels.This week, the Qahtani tribe of western Saudi Arabia has been welcoming entrants to its Mazayen al-Ibl competition, a parade of the “most beautiful camels” in the desolate desert region of Guwei’iyya, 120 km (75 miles) west of Riyadh.” MORE
No one, however, expected Mona Hussein Abu-Bakr to win!!
Ouch.. sorry, yeah that’s pretty f*cked up. On a serious note, I think we should all be congratulating Ms. Abu-Bakr for becoming the first female (?) chief of a political party in Jordan.
Yay democracy! Democracy? DEMOCRACY!!! Tayib, whatever… “democracy”… she’s still hotter than Golda.

Anything, and I mean ANYTHING is better than being born Muslim. Most of us Americans/westerners are VERY fortunate to have escaped such brazen hell. Could you imagine believing what they believe? How sad it would be to sour under Islamic nut job freaks.
GOD BLESS AMERICA AND DEMOCRACY! PROFILE ALL ARABS BETWENN 15-40. STRIKE THEM DOWN FOR THEY THINK THEY ARE RIGHT. PISS AND VINEGAR IS ALL….THEY ARE JUST 500 YEARS BEHIND, LOOK HOW THEY TREAT WOMEN!

Posted by NiX | April 29, 2007, 5:07 pmNadeem, at first, I would’ve bet my life that you had photoshopped the picture, but apparently, she IS majdoobeh. Funny post.
Posted by Anonymous | April 29, 2007, 5:13 pmI would have said the same as mr anonymous above if i havent seen another picture for her with a different pose..
however, ur humor is a bit unfair. I have no idea about the internal jordanian politics… but I hope she can fill her new position to “wipe” out this unfortunate picture
going natural like golda is way much better
Posted by soreal | April 29, 2007, 5:52 pmwhat’s religion got to do with this competition??
oh come on…at least she’s gona be able to be seen as a human in the eyes of her people, not as some political nutter… and I’m sure she’s got a reason for entering the competition…it’s all for fun.. she chose to do it. she is, after all, a human with brains.
Humour or not, she won. And she got some attention, maybe a bit negative, but think of the attention she brought to herself.. for the sake of politics.
