I wonder if she will actually be allowed to have a say in things, or its like a token woman to stop the people complaining about womans rights in middle east?

Hopefully its the start of allowing women more rights over there...

I should point out that it's only really in the Arabian peninsula that women haven't had many rights, not the middle-east as a whole.
