Self-Censorship

I have decided to censor a picture in this blog that seems to be making the rounds in a lot of Arab countries, or presumably among people of the Muslim persuasion.
I am very curious to know if this picture, of two female samba dancers at a fancy club in Marrakech, is popular because Middle Eastern men like to look at the scantily clad women, or because somebody very fanatical is extremely offended by it.
Readers from the Arab world, if you have searched for this photo and could enlighten me on this matter, I'd be extremely grateful.
Be it far from me to want to provoke the ire of fundamentalists.
