Remembering Syria - Syrian Billboard, 1of 2

This Bra is ISO Certified.. LOL.. :DD

LOL...wonder bra maybe?

Remembering Syria - Syrian Billboard, 1of 2 by friend_faraway - Countdown 2 Pakistan.

People might think that Syria is a conservative Islamic country, but that is not the case. Syria is one of the most liberal Islamic countries in the Middle East -not only you have the freedom of what you want to wear, what you want to drink ( alcohol I mean), enjoying night life to night clubs and cabarets, but they are also very open on what they display on the billboard.

Location : Souq Saroujja, Damascus -Syria

The Baath parties in Syria and Iraq which came to power, and resulted in Syria in the Assad-dynasty and in Iraq in Saddam Hussain;'s family, were both rather secular Sunni movements, which resulted in this kind of cultural-religiously "liberal" policies if you compare them to the rest of the Middle East. I once was having a dinner in a restaurant in Damascus, with life music, and at some moment the women were dancing on the tables, while the men were standing clapping in their hands around these tables.
