[kj] OT: Boycott the UAE

[ade]

Dubai - land of the monied. Like Spain for English builders, only *slightly* more upmarket.
 
With all that bourgeoisie Westerny type stuff going on there (lots of Western investment, etc) I'm
REALLY looking forward to the bombs going off. Oh, NO bombs have gone off yet? And yet there's
all these Westnerners living there, it's like some sort of capitalist babylon & yet no one's getting
blown up?
 
Strange methinks.

Can't think what I buy from the UAE apart from maybe petrol, and the petrol stations don't exactly say where the fuel is from.

How about this? A man in jail for 4 years for having 0.003g of cannabis stuck to his shoe. Another Swiss man, 4 years for having 3 poppy seeds stuck to his clothes from a bread roll!!!
