Bye Bye Bikinis in Egypt thanks to the Muslim Brotherhood

To be replaced by "Burqa Beach Babes"

From Eric Dondero:

Ah, yes, the "Arab Spring."

The Obama administration is touting their foreign policy successes in Egypt, and Libya.

Now this from AllHeadlineNews "Egypt’s Brotherhood declares war on the bikini":

Sunbathing in Alexandria may soon be a thing of the past, at least if some Egyptian Islamist politicians have their way.

Egypt's tourism industry has suffered a severe blow since the outburst of anti-regime demonstrations in January. But that did not stop the Freedom and Justice Party, the political wing of the Muslim Brotherhood, from demanding stricter regulations over what tourists can do and wear while visiting the country. The party is urging officials to ban skimpy swimwear and the consumption of alcohol on Egyptian streets.

"Beach tourism must take the values and norms of our society into account," Muhammad Saad Al-Katatny, secretary-general of Freedom and Justice, told Egyptian tourism officials on Monday. "We must place regulations on tourists wishing to visit Egypt, which we will announce in advance."

Note - A check of so-called "libertarian" websites who claim to support civil liberties, such as Reason, Cato.org, Radley Balko, LewRockwell.com, Daily Paul, NolanChart, et.al. shows not a one of them covering this story.
