Ford Middle East has offered a free mustang to a Saudi woman who fought for women’s rights to drive in the kingdom.

Sahar Nassif, 63, was an outspoken critic of Saudi Arabia’s driving laws, before the ban on women drivers was lifted last week.

In October 2013, Nassif was arrested by Saudi police in Jeddah for posting a video on Youtube of herself buckling up and driving around the city.

Following the news of the royal decree issued by Saudi King Salman last week, Nassif told the BBC:

‘I’m really thrilled, everybody’s so thrilled – I’m so excited I don’t know what to do.  ‘I’m going to buy a Mustang!’

In a tweet to Nassif on Friday, Ford Middle East said:

"We'd like to give you your dream car," Ford Middle East tweeted to Nassif on Friday, followed hours later by "Your Mustang awaits" with the picture of a yellow car speeding through a tunnel and the hashtag #MustangSahar.

German car-maker Volkwagen in the Middle East joined the chorus of auto sellers applauding the Saudi driving decree, tweeting on Friday:

Car-makers have rushed in to target Saudi women after the decision is expected to boost regional car sales by 28 per cent in the first seven months of 2017,   analysts at UK business intelligence firm IHS Markit said.

Nissan were also made a bid on twitter to cash in on potential buyers from the wealthy Gulf state, posting their congratulations to Saudi women, along with luxury auto companies Cadillac and Chevrolet.

The same Saudi Arabia kill Libya and wanted Assad gone.
Saudi wanted democracy in Libya and yet her country females can't drive but ladies drive any how in Libya and even married foreigners
Saudi is second terrorist state after US
Both have been responsible for the death of millions people around the world.
America rambles on and on about "human rights" and bleats about "humanitarian concerns", while at the same time supporting and allying with the ignominious Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, which is opposed to many of the values the West and America espouse. This tells you that the USA doesn't give two shiits about morality and human rights. It's all propaganda!

America supports the abomination called Israel and turns a blind eye to her contemptible treatment of the Palestinians.

But, for "humanitarian concerns" and whatever other shiit you can think of, the United States has invaded:

Vietnam
North Korea
Afghanistan
Iraq
And destabilized Libya

You see the Americans labelling others genocidal monsters and indicting them for "War crimes", but has America apologized to the world for Vietnam and Iraq? How many American Presidents are in PRISON?

America is a joke. A disgrace to the very principles upon which it was founded.

When you understand that Zionists and WASP Freemasons control America, its Modus Operandi becomes clear as cystal.

Nasty backward country for mullahs and their sex-obsessed ilk, who hide their own women in black gunny sacks, before flying off to London for a spot of bonking with the expensive hookers there.
I and majority of the 180 million Nigeria population would prefer that kind of "nasty backward country" to a shitty hell hole called Nigeria.
And I would prefer their ruling mullahs to our ruling megalomaniacs.
Saudi Arabia thought it was protecting its women and now that the world is proving them wrong, they are listening and making corrections. Can you say the same thing about your country and leaders.

But if i may ask why were they banned before?


Didn't you see the caveat?
Driving causes vibrations
Vibrations affect the vag!na
This will turn the woman on when driving (considering for them it's a different vibration just sitting in the car without driving)

...and this is Haram
According to oga dem

Ndi ala

By the way all those car companies owe that woman a percentage of all cars sold to women in that country for the rest of their lives! The mustang is just extra!

Pathetic.

Insidious evils are the WORST and the most dangerous forms of evil. Everyone sees Nazi Germany for what it is. But the propaganda of the USA has given the monster a new cloak. America is being applauded and recognised as the beacon of civilization and liberty by many the world over. Very few Americans see their government for what it is. Many fools among them have no idea the number of ENEMIES the American government has created for its citizens outside their country.

America's ridiculous Militay spending and the size of its Military tells you ALL you need to know about its agenda. America's geographical location makes it nearly invulnerable to conventional attack. All America needs are a few submarines and aircraft carriers to fend off any serious threat. It barely needs soldiers at all. So, what's the purpose of the American Military if not AGGRESSION and TERRORISM?

America violates the sovereignty of other nation states to "protect America" [although, you wouldn't have seen American fighter jets buzzing over Russian Airspace, had Osama bin Laden been living in Moscow i.e America is a disgusting cowardly bastard that only bullies weak nations]. Imagine Pakistan invading the USA to kill her enemy - that would have gone down well, wouldn't it?

If America's enemies had the same military power as America, America would cease to exist by tomorrow.

You do not need values and principles to gain the West's approval. As long as you comply and do not threaten their interests [which has NOTHING to do with values, morals and principles], you're good to go. That shouldn't be a surprise.

That's ISLAM for you! It is the most sexist and misogynistic of the three Abrahamic abominations.

The chances of women in Islamic countries winning rape cases are effectively zero. Islam tells us that the testimony of one man in court is worth that of TWO WOMEN. Way to go.
