WTF: What are White Weapons?

White Weapons

The newspaper headlines in Kuwait amazes me everyday! This time its Daily Star Kuwait online edition. The headline is ‘State bans sale of White Weapons’ read it here [LINK]

WTF are white weapons? According to the news article they are Daggers, Swords and other sharp metal objects. Damn now I cant buy kitchen knives no more in Kuwait, nor can I buy nails and hammer. ;)

Update 1: Even Arab Times is carrying the same story [LINK]

Update 2: Here is the root of this news [LINK]

    How unusual. I never knew they were white weapons. I wonder what black weapons are. Guns? Does the article mention why they’ve banned them?

    you could still buy a hammer, just not the nail extracting kind.
