They'll never ban sexting - they pretty much invented it! Arabic seems uniquely designed for erotic poetry, it is a rather sexy language.
Poor Brittany - leave her alone!
Now if you'd said Miley, we'd all agree.
However, you are thinking like a Westerner. In the Middle East (including Israel - ask 240b, he's spent a lot of time there) civilization is pop culture. Sharia, the Talmudic laws, both are a full blueprint for a civilization, not just a relationship with God. (just is the wrong word, but I am a tad tired today to think of the right one.)
Anything that changes the culture is an attack on their entire set of beliefs. You know the most popular US TV show in Jordan? It's the Waltons. Fun, entertaining and not threatening!
