I do not really say a change
Reader comment on item: Saudi Arabian Airlines Cleans Up Its Act
Submitted by dhimmi no more (United States), Aug 31, 2007 at 17:45
The Arabic text says:
There are many substances that are forbidden (and cannot be) imported into the kingdom for religious reasons because of local laws among this would be spirits/alcohol, the meat of the pig and its byproducts, illegal drugs and narcotics, guns, explosives, sharp objects (knives) or porno
I read the the first sentence as do not bring with you religious items forbidden in the Kingdom because of religious reasons and I would inlcude here Bibles etc...
