"There
are indications that King Abdullah -- who is believed to be strongly influenced
by his women's rights promoting daughter, Princess Adila bint Abdullah al-Saud
-- may favor lifting the ban but is mindful of adamant opposition to such a
move by the Saudi clerical establishment. If this is really his view, then
Washington's argument over women's driving rights would be with Saudi clerics,
not the Saudi government.

PS The daughter of the king could liberate her own half-sisters from house arrest, before she poses as a women's rights advocate. How do I know about that, because I heard from her half-sister myself.
PPS Don't tell me that you are surprised that I have sources within the Saudi royal family.
