Bad Hair Days

(Fox News) - Palestinian militants seeking to enforce Islamic law in Gaza have attacked secular youth for wearing hair gel in Hamas controlled territory. World Net Daily reports security officials affiliated with Palestinian authority President Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah party — say patrol units have targeted Palestinian males wearing the hair gel — seriously injuring one boy.

Gunmen say the use of hair gel is an imitation of the west and the beginning of corruption. Officials also report the patrols are responsible for recent closings of pool halls, and movie and video stores.
