British tourist 'gang-raped in Dubai' faces jail for extra-marital sex
Evening Standard (UK) ^ | 11/16/16 | Mark Chandler

A British tourist who was allegedly gang-raped in Dubai has been charged by police for having extra-marital sex.

The 25-year-old reported her alleged ordeal at the hands of two men to local police but was then locked up and charged, The Sun reported.

It is feared the woman, who has since been bailed, could be given a long prison sentence after breaking the United Arab Emirates’ strict laws.

Meanwhile her alleged attackers, both from the UK, have been allowed to return home.

The pair filmed their hotel room attack on mobile phones, it is claimed.

Tourism in Dubai is not a good idea.

Not all of us. I’d be happy to see that part of the world reduced back to its rightful poverty and irrelevence so that it can’t keep funding Wahhabi mosques all around the world, even leftist newspapers like the Independent and the Guardian regularly pen articles denouncing Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the like.

I want to see how the snowflakes respond to this.

I’ve been to Israel and really enjoyed it, despite my fear before I got there.

I will say that I got jumpy our second day in Jerusalem because it happened to be the first day of Ramadan. I wouldn’t pick that date if I had it to do over again.

Oh, please. I was once told by a Brit how Dubai had it all over any disgusting vacation place in the USA. Brits are Arabists, even when they are raped within an inch of their lives.

Well you should apply to the British Foreign Service then. You could be put in charge of the tsk tsk desk to remind raped vacationing British women up on Muslim sex charges for being raised that they volunteered for the experience when they choose to go to Dubai in the first place - and then smile and offer yourself for the pleasure of the rapists as you stamp their return visas to England.

That way, you could get Britain to pay for the freezer for your heart.

Well, I know there are enticing, very good paying jobs for Westerners in Dubai, but to go there as a tourist? I can only speculate she is a very foolish person...

OK, Israel aside.

Israel at least has interesting history.

Knew a man who was a oil contractor in Saudi Arabia. Great pay but you were so isolated there. Then he was in the compound when it was hit by terrorists. Came back and never returned.

Dubai would be rather easy to erase from the map.

The example has to begin somewhere.

Anyone who goes to any Muslim country is a fool. I will never set foot in one, not for love, money, tourism, scholarship or any other reason. I’d rather go to the South Bronx or North Korea.

Yes, we need to allow hundreds of thousands more of those 7th century barbarians into the country.

Might want to give our guys over there a heads up first:

We have more than a few assets over there at the moment.

Politics and international military strategy makes weird bedfellows indeed.

They figure, probably correctly, that as long as the USA wants them, they can get away with as much Islamic hate as they want to.

Doubtful that UK authorities will cuff these animals when they step into the baggage return at Heathrow.
