Yes Dubai has plenty of nice cars, i recognise some i have seen on the streets of dubai and know some of the owners. Most of these cars belong to business people who have worked hard to get what they have.

I challenge the poster to defend his argument! For someting like this can only come out of some one who has been brainwashed by american media.

I couldn't agree with you more and way to go girl...!

Unfortunatly this kind of statement comes from the same sort of people who go around keying cars. Envy and jealousy as I mentioned in the other thread.... Need I write more.

Rasha - don't bother with such people

UAE is a very rich and modern country like all the gulf countries , but some people think that untill now we are using the camels

And where does America get it's oil from? I'm sure calling me "ignorant" made you feel good, but your response sure doesn't put you at any higher of recognition. I'll stop here, there's potential for things to get ugly and I refuse to take it there. Besides, it was your choice to take my comment as a personal attack.

Firstly, let me say I agree with you ...but why do so many Arabs seem to think American's are "brainwashed" by their Media - that is also an ignorant misunderstanding of western culture - the Media is free in the west - there are many different voices saying many different things - information is not so easily oppressed as it is in some parts of the world - also (although I am not an American) do not underestimate the intelligence of the average American - why is it so acceptable for people to make such sweeping statements about the intelligence of Americans - sure there are some real morons in the US - but there are real morons everywhere. In my experience, although the US is generally quite a conservative nation, American's are some of the most open-minded and accepting people in the world - I know there is much anti-American feeling in the world today - but let's not assume that all Americans are ignorant and stupid.

The UAE, like any other country, has the right to use it's resources and trade them with other countries - Deutsch - when you say they are spending American money, I would remind you that it's not just the US that uses oil - if American's have such a problem with fuel prices - then they should stop building and buying such large vehicles and start driving hybrids.

I understand that, it was a casual reference taken to the extreme. Any reasonable person would have read it, then dismissed it, but what else can I say, people will be people, no?
