But Dubai was worse - it was NEVER real. It was a city built with all the reality of a Hollywood back lot - all appearance - no reality.
Two years ago I used to think Dubai was insane but real when I read about their billion dollar indoor ski slope. I figured it was loony but they could afford it
Now it seems Dubai was built on Citibank money and borrowing from other foreign suckers. Ripping off the infidel is OK if Muhammad is your false prophet
