I loved it very entertaining but who ever gave you some of your "SO CALLED FACTS" was misleading I'm affraid but again thouroughly entertaining even though we didnt actually see inside the Harem?

the whole video was filmed in the harem and the facts were read off the walls of the various displays.

@eloidor I read the facts off of the plaques in the harem - we are talking about one from the Ottoman period not today

@sebbbo77

You really gotto get your fact straight, I happen to know from a girl who had been to a harem that the sultan's have their wives, this particular one whom she met had 12 oficial wives and that they range in age from 42 the elder, to 16 the younger plus the wemen at the harem were 100 including her and they all were given $1000.00 to go to a casting in which they all were graduate students and artist, she was picked and explained everything before she got in the plane headed for Dubai

Sebbo thats true because Suddam Hussein according had a russian harem of his own, the room being in the cellars of his multi complex family house. Well documented too in BBC telecasts after they found out in 2003 when it was partially bombed. At the same time, here in Sweden rapes have jumped up 30% because of arab immigration alone. When the arab men come to Sweden they can't believe how liberal it is compared to their sexually repressed countries.

Harems still exist today. Sultans from Saudi Arabia and in the city of Dubai still take women from blonde nordic countries, usually luring them in by the promise of a free holiday and the best of accomodation. The price is, you guessed it sex with the sultans. The same goes with Russian women. They are trafficked across the black sea to Turkey and then on to Iraq where again, the price is rape in most cases. In other words, its human sex traffiking and it still continues.
