Now they need a beach volleyball team.

What do you make of UAE and the Saudi's criminalizing/banning the blackberry usage? Is it a prelude to something using their airspace and removing fast clandestine reporting?

What happens if you pull a veil off whilst tackling?....a death sentence if your team ever plays in Iran

If you are talking about Israel I doubt it. The Iranians have early warning sites in Syria.

This action was done by states away from Syria. States which are historically within the US influence.

My point is if you are talking about a strike by Israel stopping IMs in Saudi doesn't matter, Iran already has warning of an attack.

US forces are based out in the desert in these "Military Cities" where they can just shut off cell coverage at will.

I think Saudi and the UAE just want to prevent tweets and stuff like happened in Iran earlier this year.
