Banned Items


Just read A Reminder of What the Saudis and Their Allies Really Espouse
by Douglas Farah
on the Counterterrorism blog and it snapped me out of my usual google reader j-j-j-j-j-j-j behaviour:

Tucked away in the Customs Regulations section is this:

"Items and articles belonging to religions other than Islam are also prohibited. These may include Bibles, crucifixes, statues, carvings, items with religious symbols such as the Star of David, and others."

I wonder how strictly this is enforced.
