31. Motaz ,Dubai: Stop Lying - but thats typical for Arabs
Gabrielle Goldwater ,   Geneva Switzerland   (02.27.06)
If you cannot take the TRUTH and run for shelter in asking people not to hit on YOU : What a sad joker are you - an Arab in his full regala TYPICAL: ... !!!!!!!! Here comes more: If the UAE is ideologically so very much aligned with the United States, then why won't the government allow the free download of Ishad Manji's book.... The Trouble With Islam Today .... in Arabic? If the UAE has a problem with Manji's ideas, what kinds of problems do the government and people generally have with the US Constitution, freedom of conscience, freedom of expression, separation of Church and State, religious pluralism? And if UAE is against such things and considers such things against Islam, then how far away is the UAE from Bin Laden? Ideologically, not that far at all... Not at all Now if you don't like FACTS then stick to your brainwashed Arab sites
32. ALAN ,USA: You are very welcome
Gabrielle Goldwater ,   Geneva Switzerland   (02.27.06)
33. Motaz: what makes you think that we don't have alternatives
Gabrielle Goldwater ,   Geneva Switzerland   (02.27.06)
WE DO ..... YOU don't educate yourself more in science and technology gee you are really dumbed down Ethanol, Natural Gas - NOT YOURS others - synthetic oil - Hybrid - do you want me to carry on To top it we have oil from the North Sea - in much better form - that is called LIGHT we have Russian oil that is called LIGHT Now here Dubai Facts: OIL It is you major source of econimoc stability: But it is expected that: Dubai's oil reserves have reduced over the past decade and are now expected to be exhausted within 20 years. The main fields are offshore: Fateh, Southwest Fateh and two smaller fields, Falah and Rashid. The only onshore deposit is the Margham field. Dubai Petroleum Company (DPC) is the main operator. SO - stop showing off - get yourself a bike
34. Gabrielle you didn't address any of my issues.
Motaz ,   Dubay   (02.27.06)
And all of what you said in your last talkback and attributed to me, I did not say. I don't knwo where that came from you jsut completely changed the subject. Typical.
35. Why should Israel recognize a "people" that don't exist?
Palestiniansareamyth ,   USA   (02.27.06)
"Palestinians" are just Arab occupiers of Jewish land. Send them all back to Arabia where they belong! Israel is for the Jews!
36. Motaz ,Dubay: I addressed all of yours
Gabrielle Goldwater ,   Geneva Switzerland   (02.27.06)

I got blocked every time I wanted to try and talk to arabs on there sites and I got no freedom like you got it from the Jews! And I know arabs who came back from dubai and SA and they told me a very differend story about how they lived there. And pictures don't say me alot, google is full of pictures hahah
38. Motaz , Dubay: Forgot to give you your polls from Dubai
Gabrielle Goldwater ,   Geneva Switzerland   (02.28.06)
polling data from the UAE about its views of the United States. The results were shocking for so-called “friends.” Here are a few key findings from a 2004 poll conducted by Zogby International: · 73% of UAE citizens had a negative view of the United States; only 14% had a favorable view. · Only 5% of UAE citizens felt that “democracy” was an “extremely important” reason for the U.S. invasion of Iraq. Preventing the spread of weapons of mass destruction was cited by 16%. · Asked to identify their “most admired” world leaders, 18% of UAE citizens chose Osama bin Laden. “No one” finished first with 22%. · When asked how they viewed themselves, only 19% said they identified first and foremost as citizens of the United Arab Emirates, while 66% said they saw themselves as “Muslims” first. Conclusion: The United Arab Emirates is not Europe or Western world in general - Its citizens share neither our values nor our interests. The UAE are sitting on a powder keg of radical Islamic fundamentalism, making it much more likely that via Dubai the Western Wold will be susceptible to infiltration. Facts you of course enjoy and would love, since it suits your intentions. Well how do we know, that you are not one of them
39. ADVANCEMENT?
ALAN ,   USA   (02.28.06)
WHAT ABOUT ADVANCEMENT IN MEDICINE, CURES FOR CANCER, STEM CELL RESEARCH? DON'T YOU KNOW THAT ISRAEL LEADS THE WORLD AND WOULD HELP ANY ARAB THAT WOULD ASK FOR IT!?! tHERE ARE BODY PARTS OF JEWS IN ARABS WALKING THE STREETS. WHY DON'T I HEAR CONVERSATIONS ABOUT EDUCATION, HEALTH CARE AND HIGHWAY CONSTRUCTION. NICE TO HEAR THAT DUBAI IS SUCH A PRECIOUS, BUT HOW DOES IT MAKE A DIFFERENCE TO THE WELL BEING OF THE REST OF THE WORLD?

Abdullah ,   Kuwait City   (02.28.06)
Were you hoping that the stance of a some bad Palestinians towards Kuwait to have a scare on Kuwaitis forever? If so then dream on! I am a Kuwaiti, my family lived in Kuwait since its establishment, but of course that isn't the answer you wished to hear! Palestinians live in Kuwait like human beings unlike in Israel were some of you fascists treat them like you treat cockroaches! Finally, yes there are but won't be able to post in them since I am assuming that you lack posting in Arabic! Shalom.

Linda   (02.28.06)
I see you do not respond about what I told you about the IP! Abdullah, the difference between you and me is that I wish you a long and good life in Q8 and most of the Jewish and Christian people wish that for Muslims, we have 1 million Muslims living in Israel and they are doing much better than Arabs in there own countries. Want some pictures of there jeeps and big houses? ;) The Jews are for the Arabs cockroaches!, my family had to fled an Arab country my friend and not because they felt safe. And they had been living in that country for as long as they can remember ok! The Arab world always talks about Arab Muslims, Arab Christians, but never about Arab Jews you know, wonder why my brother!! And last, our Arabic is fine thank you last time I looked. I was not only talking about Arab newspapers written in Arabic, but about Muslims sites in general Allah jisallim aklak
42. Abdullah,Kuwait City: How come NOT 1 Jew can sit in YOUR
Gabrielle Goldwater ,   Geneva Switzerland   (02.28.06)
Government ? But we have over 1 million Arabs being Israeli citizens - that get elected - that vote and run their affairs and sit in the Knesset Now you give me just 1 Jew who sits in your's If you cannot - then crawl back under your rock - sorry I mean sand-pile Name me one Muslim State that isn't a basket case - Just one
43. Linda's IP
Motaz   (02.28.06)
OK Linda, you got me there, oh wait, no you didn't! IP (Internet Protocol) for Israel is the same as for Gaza and West Bank. When I last went there I could view Arabic websites fine. There is no conspiracy to block websites to Israelis LOL!
44. #Motaz
Linda   (02.28.06)
view them I can also, but be part of a form and say iIam jewish is a problem, but try it for a few times! Put an Israeli flag and call yourself mosje ;)))))
45. Response to Lina (post 41)
Abdullah ,   Kuwait City   (03.03.06)
There was only one Jewish Kuwaiti family that left Kuwait in 1948, thank God the Israeli terrorism in all of the Arab world that has Jews citizens in order to scare them and have them move to the promised land! What a dirty move to gain population!
46. Response to Gabrielle (post 42)
Abdullah ,   Kuwait City   (03.03.06)
The fact of the matter is that Israels keeps braging of being a Western democracy and in the same time treat its Arab citizens as second or third class citizens when of course Jewish Ashkenazis are treated as fist class citizens followed by Sephardics then comes the Arabs, so please try to clarify why should be ignore this fact and call Israel a true democracy?
