Ok the story of the Brit who allegedly insulted the prophet Mohammed?? Well don't really know or have an opinion either way until I read that he was an expat living in Qatar. Now I think probably not. Nobody who lives in the region would be so stupid. I wonder how much the employee asked for, for t...

But then you are on mind altering drugs prescribed by a foreign doctor and don't know what you are doing when you shove a cattle prod up someones derriere on camera!

That whole case was completely messed up. Whatever happened to him?

Wow talk about taking a stance and doing something positive to combat the issues of obesity and diabetes, which are terribly on the rise. Have to say, good on them:

Well that's a tad defeatist! At least they're trying something. As I said before, good for them, it's a step in the right direction. Now if only parents would stop feeding their children junk.

Oh Mel! Many people living and working here still pay tax in their homes countries. The tax free thing doesn't stand up anymore. Everyone here is taxed in one way or another.

Well you know the simplest thing to do would be to review CCTV footage from the police station at the 'alleged' time the crime took place! Oh wait, they won't request it - I wonder why? :roll: You know it's becoming a bit of a boring theme where people try to get expats into trouble. Sure, there are...

True patience but In wouldn't say people are Dubai haters, it's just we've been here long enough to see all the cracks and faults with the place. That's not to say other places are perfect, far from it, everywhere has it's good points and bad points. And you're right about the opinion of the law, bu...

you lady always side with anything against this country The police have a giant evidence against him , what does he have :mrgreen: It's nearly at "that" point isn't it ? Give western expats 12 months to leave; Do not issue anymore visa's to westerners (white, (blue) pink, tan, brown or bl...

Oh Mel! Many people living and working here still pay tax in their homes countries. The tax free thing doesn't stand up anymore. Everyone here is taxed in one way or another. All of us do a “cost benefit analysis” to choose a place to live and work. And as you and many others chosen UAE to live in,...

You know what uaeboohooobooo I can't even be bothered to read your protests. To the foe list you go.

Well they've given him a month in jail on the lesser charge of finding and failing to report lost government property.

Fair enough he should have handed them in, in the first place.

LOL no I push buttons and talk rubbish for a living.

Uaeboobedooscooobydoo, No I don't! And what is this 'giant' evidence you speak of? Oh the word of the inept police officer who 'lost' his handcuffs in the first place? Uh-huh - moving on.

I still love Dubai otherwise, trust me I would have skipped out on a plane along time ago! Just like everywhere it has its good and bad points. It's just that some of the things that go on are so ridiculous. Sadly, for a place which claims to be so progressive, it's still very backwards in many resp...

Well regardless of her religion and speaking as a woman, I think she's pretty stupid - that's hardly a progressive way to push for your 'freedom' - she just sent the women's movement back about 100 years, silly bint!

Predictable as ever!

More than likely! Slipped and fell of a curb? Yeah right lol

Key sentence 'confine them to houses until death do claim them' - that does NOT mean 'kill' them!

Unlike some who do it for their own spiteful ignorant cheap thrills.

True, plus all the perks, freebies and meeting interesting people.

But is it not you lot whoa re misinterpreting the quote? Just like others would! Nowhere in that passage does it say the women must be killed! So stop imagining what is written there and actually READ what is there!

Plus sorry, but honour killings are more cultural than religious.

Why shouldn't I big myself up BM? I'm lucky to say that I have a job I really enjoy - not many can say that these days! It sends me to all sorts of interesting events, meeting interesting and well known people from across the globe. Nothing wrong in that whatsoever. Why is it I am bigging myself up?...

Coincidentally, I watched a re-digitised copy of the classic ‘Lawrence of Arabia’ yesterday and found the following dialogue as true today and historically, as it was stated in the film in 1962, at the scene by the water well when Sherif Ali shot Tafas for taking water from one of his wells, and ye...

I bet this mad Yank who spent his life savings on telling people the world was going to end on the 21st of May is feeling a right fool now!

When's the next supposed date? Isaac Newton reckoned 2060.

LOOOL get a room already! Mahmoud, if you're going to be meeting up with BM, you need your drinking trousers on, she'll sink you under the table with her massive tolerance to plonk! Also hope you wear lots of aftershave, the 'Fag-ash Lil' scent could be quite over powering.

LOL straight cut and paste from the paper!

Don't really care about this, doesn't affect us here does it.

Key sentence 'confine them to houses until death do claim them' - that does NOT mean 'kill' them! What happened to you Choc? you turning like muzzies, how can you condone unlawful imprisonment, reckless endangerment and may be more crimes (manslaughter). You will notice that no muzzies, including S...

Oh dear o dear, trust me you guys have NOTHING on Liban! I wish he was back, always game for a laugh.

Choc ithink its time for u to admit ur self into a hospital to put u to sleep, sure no one will miss a person like u and I believe the world will be a nice place without ppl like u living in it. You are such a dis.gusting person uaekid. Disliking someone is one thing, but telling them they should g...

Well you'll never HEAR that it goes above 50 degrees, because a decree by the late Sheikh Zayed stated that if it does, people are not allowed to work!

He could at least come and say sorry, for scaring the pants of some poor impressionable people.
