I assume you’re an American. Because so far, with all due respect to the intelligent Americans, it’s been mostly Americans who show ignorance while speaking as if they know what they’re talking about! I am not interested in defending this man. But I’d like to correct your information. He is the ruler of Dubai. His people enjoy an unbelievable wealth. There’s no Dubai citizen that is poor, that just doesn’t exist. They pay no taxes. They get one of the highest salaries per capita in the world.

Some people here are obviously jealous of Dubais sucess, and I would encourage Middle Eastern people jealous of Dubai, to wake up, get an education and stop wasting our time fighting eachother over stupid stuff like who invented baclava and who dances better dabka.
