A [WorldNetDaily article] today notes that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is now, for the first time, issuing tourist visas — but don’t apply if your Jewish, or even if you have a passport with an Israeli arrival/departure stamp (which could exclude lots of Christians who travel to the ‘Holy land’). Specifically denied visas are
1. An Israeli passport holder or a passport that has an Israeli arrival/departure stamp.
2. Those who don’t abide by the Saudi traditions concerning appearance and behaviors. Those under the influence of alcohol will not be permitted into the Kingdom.
3. There are certain regulations for pilgrims and you should contact the consulate for more information.
4. Jewish People

Oh, and let’s not forget the obvious stuff, also from the cached page:
Important Instructions:
If a woman is arriving in the Kingdom alone, the sponsor or her husband must receive her at the airport.
Every woman must have confirmed accommodation for the duration of her stay in the Kingdom.
A woman is not allowed to drive a car and can therefore only travel by car if she is accompanied by her husband, a male relative, or a driver. . . .
