Country must have no age of consent laws.

""Hello, room service? Could you send up two 12's, a 10, and some Jesus juice?"

.....errr...make that some Mohammed juice....

[evets]

What's a 'nice' boy like you,

Doing in a place like this?

[Hand em their arse]

He's hoping no one will look at his face....

[holyscroller]

Looks like a big sinking boat, stern first.

[mhking]

Gorgeous building...

Never mind that the literal translation of "Burj Al Arab" is "Building of the Arabs."

Now, hopefully, MJ can stay there, and out of our collective hair...

[antiRepublicrat]

Wow, $1,000 a night for their cheapest room. Counting Whacko probably got the best and had his little entourage stay there, he probably paid over $20K for a night. I thought he was supposed to be near bankruptcy.

[Tax-chick]

Thanks - what a view they have!

[Bombardier]

He must have heard what ol' Mohammed had said.....

A goat for use, a woman for pleasure, but a boy for ecstasy.

Maybe ol' MJ's been reading the Hadiths.....

[HostileTerritory]

I find the interior extremely vulgar, though. They have a different sense of taste in the Middle East...

[Khashayar]

keep her/him there

[reagan_fanatic]

I thought he was nearly bankrupt

Nah - he still has a five and two tens.

[Ticonderoga34]

I wonder how good the security is in Bahrain? I think that the "King of Pop" would be a terrorist target.

[loreldan]

Mmmmmm-K I'll bite. You're joking right?

[Fawn]

A muslim country?

[Shermy]

"A muslim country?"

Little kingdoms on the Persian Gulf. Reportedly cosmopolitan.

Like everyone, probably want to get their hands on the Beatles catalog.

Looks like a nice enough little place.

With your chauffeur driven Rolls Royce, discreet in-suite check in, private reception desk on every floor and a brigade of highly trained butlers who provide around-the-clock attention, you can be assured of a highly personalised service throughout your stay.

I'd end up gorging on those little baggies of chocolate pretzels they have in the mini-bars...

[miele man]

"...because there was just no way to know where exactly he was holed up."

Seems to me the writer for the Kaleej Times is on to Jackson.

[yankeedame]

So now he's going abroad for children because the U.S is on to him here.

I'm sure self-exiled Roman Polanski (sp?) could show him around.

[Kirkwood]

Dubai is the only place in the mideast that I willingly visit on business.
