Poppycock Revisited...



Diana got it right, Camilla the Duchess of Rottweiler did not.

Duchess Of Cornwall Accidentally Exposes Ankle In Pakistan Mosque

Islamabad, Pakistan (BANG) - Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, caused a panic in Pakistan on Thursday. The duchess unwittingly revealed her ankle inside a mosque.

Camilla visited the Lahore mosque with her husband Prince Charles dressed in modest slacks. However, when Camilla replaced her shoes - which she had removed for the tour in accordance with Muslim tradition - she accidentally tucked her pants' leg into her sock and flashed her ankle.

Her assistant private secretary, Amanda McManus, was heard frantically whispering "Ma'am, ma'am" and then rushed down the steps after her to rectify the wardrobe malfunction.

It is considered disrespectful to Islam for women to show too much skin.

Charles' first wife, the late Princess Diana, caused outrage when she visited the same mosque in 1991 wearing a green wrap dress which stopped above the knee.

Charles and Camilla were shown around the mosque by preacher Maulana Adbul Khabir Azad, whose father was threatened with imprisonment over Diana's visit in 1991.

Fortunately, it is not believed Camilla's mishap will cause the same controversy.


It should. As should this about the Royal Dhimmi. And this. And this. (the last one might make you laugh.) Here's a salvo from Camilla's team.
