Letter from Dubai

April 27, 2009

In News

Dear Norm,

I am writing to you this email while I am watching a movie called “The Wind that Shakes the Barley” …It is about a young man who on his way to London to become a doctor witnesses his friend being murdered by the Black and Tans because he refused to say his name in English …I have just reached a very beautiful scene where the Irish prisoners start chanting as their inmate is being tortured in an effort to support him …

Anyways, back to the reason I am writing this email …

There has been a mass escape from the Emirate of Dubai where car parks and buildings have been inhabited by ghosts …

The whole world is aware that the Emirate of Dubai is going through a financial crisis except for the ruler of the latter Emirate!

Everyone is hush hush about it … No one dares to say a word …

Instead of discussing the dilemma that has struck the country, a glaring image is portrayed in the media ..Believe it or not Norm, the number of camel races have increased and new folkloric games are being advertised on TV …

I just can’t understand what is going on! Who cares about camels running in the middle of the desert in some endurance race or a few swords flopping in the air by youngsters in white robes?

Who cares?

I have to however say that in spite of economic crisis’s well known drawbacks that has shed on all the world, one of the positive aspects is that it revealed more than ever that the sincere faith of Arabs in their incompetent and ignorant leader have vanquished in his retarded way of thinking…Not only has the crisis exposed the ruler’s total deficit and his failure to deal with the blackout but also and most importantly his lack of transparency in all matters big and small …

The false economy of the Emirate of the Dubai which regarded itself as a global financial center was actually the largest center of prostitution, money laundry, trafficking women and children and an abhorrent policy of racial discrimination who has created generations who do not understand the world but to say “I am a citizen of Mohamed bin Rashid ” …

Ever since the financial crisis, the US, Britain and many European countries have made a great effort in talking to staff members, investors, analysts, economists, scholars in the media to try to expose the suffering of the people who lost their jobs, they have been teaching them to cope and adapt to the “New World Order”, except here!

No one is guiding anyone to do anything!!…

Why couldn’t they see that the global crisis is a global scheme created by a bunch of scientists, experts, and intellectuals who are planning for a unified world government?? Their scheme is to abolish the so-called system of cash and liquidity in the world and rely only on the electronic cards, to trap people into more debts, to decline the price of oil to be an easy tool in the hands of the International Monetary Fund …

I am sure the world is laughing at these Gulf States …

Expatriates have deserted the high-risen towers, left the artificial lakes rot, piled their cars at airports …and mostly left behind a glorious metro that will commute next year sheep and other domestic animals

The officials in the Emirates have denied that the report published by the Times and considers it a BIG LIE and an error!

They are living in a sea of illusion …

And the latest Scam

On the 22nd of April, ABC news got a footage of one of the brothers of the rulers of Abu Dhabi, torturing a grain dealer for 45 minutes because he stole $ 5000 from him. The images are so horrific and disturbing that it reminded me of the days of Saddam …What is more disturbing was that in the footage, a man in a uniform was helping the raging Shaikh torture the man
