Islamic apartheid in action: Saudis design women-only city

UPDATE: Al-Arabiya insists that this story is false -- after it has been reported all over the world by innumerable news sources. (Thanks to Amirul.)

Vividly enforcing women's second-class status under Sharia. "Saudi Arabia: Riyadh designs a women-only city," from AGI, August 13 (thanks to C. Cantoni):

(AGI) London - Saudi Arabia, the cradle of Wahabism (the strictest Islamic doctrine), will soon build a women-only town.

Its purpose is to reconcile female carrier aspirations and a strict sex division. According to Sunday Mail, the city has already a name, Hafuf, will be built in the east of the country, and its construction work is scheduled to start next year. . .

"Saudi Arabia is not building an industrial city for women only...

... It's a city like any other city, but special sections and production halls will be reserved for women within the factories"

Same old pedohammedan segregation, nothing new.

I suppose that they'll still have to wear the slave-rag, as even Saudi Arabia has CCTV. .and those 'religous police' will be going frantic over their monitors if they focus-in on a strand of head hair.

It's a press release that has been garbled at some point along the way:

"Special sections and production halls will be reserved for women within the factory, i. e, the city is not closed or not intended for women only."

"proximity to residential neighborhoods to facilitate the movement of women to and from the workplace. It is also characterized by allocating sections equipped for women workers in environment and working conditions consistent with the privacy of women according to Islamic guidelines and regulations."

It's merely to keep them out of sight while making full use of their education. Segregation as usual.

Sounds like Harems, only more functional.

Honestly, if muslimas weren't needed as baby jihadi factories, I suspect muslim men would be happy to live without women altogether.

The great comedic film director Jacques Tati constructed an entire (small) city for his movie Playtime -- complete with streets and office buildings. The faux city was called "Tativille" and it was built in Paris, on an empty field on Île-de-France. One scene in the movie involves people going in and out of a bakery: every time the glass door is opened (and is pointedly paused for a moment by the actor), you get a glimpse of a reflection of the Eiffel Tower. Tati actually built that bakery exactly in alignment so that the real Eiffel Tower, a stone's throw away from Tativille, would be reflected in the glass door at just the right angle -- one of the film's innumerable little caprices.

Playtime came out in 1967. Here's a description of just what it entailed:

...big blocks of dwellings, buildings of steel and glass, offices, tarmacked roads, carpark, airport and escalators. About 100 workers laboured ceaselessly for 5 months to construct this revolutionary studio with transparent partitions, which extended over 15,000 square metres. Each building was centrally heated by oil. Two electricity generators guaranteed the maintenance of artificial light on a permanent basis.

During pre-production, "Tati visited many factories and airports throughout Europe before his cinematographer Jean Badal came to the conclusion that he needed to build his own skyscraper. Which is exactly what he did."

In fact, he built Tativille: an entire city inhabited by no one but actors – who left after each day of filming.

One estimate puts the total mass of built space and material at "11,700 square feet of glass, 38,700 square feet of plastic, 31,500 square feet of timber, and 486,000 square feet of concrete. Tativille had its own power plant and approach road, and building number one had its own working escalator."

What a world of difference between the West and Islam: With Tati reflecting the former, we had all that money and labor and time devoted to fabricating a city for the love of playful art, with men and women in all sorts of delightfully compromising positions, figuratively speaking; while with the latter, we have the disease of a deranged fanaticism propelling an obsessive-compulsive urban planning (not to mention the opulent monstrosities one finds in Dubai).

P.S.: Sadly, Tativille was demolished long ago, to make way for expansion of the highway system of that most financially and culturally vital region of Paris (the so-called aire urbaine). But the film lives on eternally, representing one of a billion reasons why we should not allow Muslims -- not a single one -- on the sacred ground of the West.
