I doubt that Saddam was sitting there passively, waiting for help and instructions from the US... so is he really a victim? Many countries are meddling in other countries' affairs in order to acheive their own strategic goals. There are lots of skeletons in lots of closets. For some reason, people s...

As Kim Jong Il sings, "I'm so ronery, sooo ronery!" Maybe he could use a friend like Valkyrie.

legendkiller, there is nothing dumb about anything I have written. Just because you don't agree with me doesn't make me dumb. Perhaps you are a teenager who is still maturing? Most definitely you need to learn to write clearly and use proper English. Your posts are rambling and messy! DID SADDAM KIL...

Hey, if it weren't the US it would likely be some other neighbouring country. Maybe the US should back out and Iran should step in? It will be decades before Iraq would be strong enough to stand on its own and push off strong foreign influence.

Scot, do you think things will get better for the lower-wage workers?

Again, please use the search function on this site and check the job recruitment websites here in Dubai. Also, check Gulf News and Khaleej Times newspaper job vacancy pages for available positions. Some of these will state salary, some won't. Also companies seem to have a scale of pay that differs f...

It's clear 2 see a) the americans attacked iraq under false pretenses b) iraq has plenty of oil...something that the americans really can use.. c) bush & his administration..hate Saddam d) that the living conditions in iraq... become worse and the list goes on... e) Various Islamic sects and ro...

Sometimes, yes. Although North American and European passport holders may get the same packages, people with passports from India, Pakistan, Phillipines etc. would be offered less. The rationale is that the package would be a lot of money in those countries so why go "overboard". This isn'...

We've already discussed the death tolls in at least one other thread, and that same point was brought out. According to he posters, it doesn't matter if Muslims are killing Muslims, it is the US/West's fault for creating the conditions that make the Muslims kill each other. Even if you debate that t...

It will be decades before Iraq would be strong enough to stand on its own and push off strong foreign influence. Very true what you just said, if US should back out, I...

You posted the same message twice. As I replied previously, please use the Search function on this site to find more threads and answers on the topic of cost of living etc.

Sure, go ahead and move it there.

Even if the US was helpful in the case of Kuwait, it doesn't erase their previous or subsequent meddling. I know it is the real world that countries use and manipulate, make friends, break friends with other countries - but some meddling has far reaching repercussions - sometimes for the good, somet...

Now we don't have to get that extreme... We know for a fact that isolationism just wouldn't work. It is too much to ask that countries NOT support evil and murderous dictators that slaughter their own people? It will always come back around and bite them in the ass. With all the wealth in the US, wo...

Actually, most world religions emphasise no s.e.x before marriage, but humans being the animals that we are (like every other animal on the this planet) are meant to be se.x.u.ally attracted to each other and procreate to propogate the species. People have been having s.e.x out of wedlock since the ...

Read again. He says he doesn't argue with the death toll.

kanelli

Concord, you are really blind if you can't see that the US meddles in highly inappropriate ways in other countries' affairs. I'm not saying the US doesn't do good, but they tend to do good when it suits them.

We've been to the rent committee and it was excellent. Our landlord lost the case in 5 minutes flat.

kanelli

Also another issue which we've just run into. The lease ran out on the 31st December, so of course all the contracts were resigned and everything before that date, with the 15% increase. I doubt very much that any landlord will go back and redo the contract according to the new rates. Surely though...

Too bad she won't run for President! Although she likely has more power in the position she is in now.

Important points from the Gulf News article yesterday about the rent cap. http://archive.gulfnews.com/articles/07/01/03/10093927.html The new rent cap rule on properties announced on Monday came into effect from January 1. -------------------- Mohammad Ahmad Al Shaikh, Secretary-General of the Commi...

The shine of Dubai wore off for me after about 6 months. It all depends on what you like to do and whether you have time to do it. It also depends on if you like a more urban and consumer lifestyle or not. For example, if your idea of fun is eating out a lot, going to the movies a lot and shopping -...

We have spacious rooms with private bathrooms in our 4 bedroom villa next to DIC & Knowledge Village. We are a South African couple and a Belgium guy in the age group of 29 - 32 years currently living in the villa. The villa is furnished with a beautiful garden including 24 hr security, wireles...

And don't forget people, you are not obligated to pay any fees to real estate agents for renewing a rental contract for the same property. Sometimes they try to charge the tenant around 2.5% of the rental amount just to make the same contract as last year with a change in dates and rent figure. If t...

Actually, I started out posting in a way that gives my opinion without personally insulting anyone. However, since so many of you are Saddam-lovers and West-haters and didn't like my opinion, I was subjected to name calling and insults. It went downhill from there. So, I see now that if someone post...
