‘Not Acceptable’: UAE Citizens Furious At US Embassy For Flying ‘Pride’ Flag
DailyWire ^ | 7/2/2021 | Ben Zeisloft

The American embassy in the United Arab Emirates drew criticism from residents of the Middle East for flying a rainbow “Pride” flag.

As CNBC reported, the United States and the United Kingdom are the first nations to fly a Pride flag at their diplomatic missions in the Arab Gulf. Currently, Article 354 of the United Arab Emirates’ criminal code states that “whoever uses coercion in having sexual intercourse with a female or sodomy with a male shall be sentenced to capital punishment.”

Earlier this week, the U.S. Mission to the U.A.E. tweeted that “on the anniversary of Stonewall, a milestone in the American civil rights movement, the U.S. Mission shows its support for the dignity and equality of all people.”

One of my fantasies is of Sloe Xoe’s corpse being carried out of the White Hutt wrapped in a rainbow flag.

NOT a threat, USSS, but do your worst anyway!

Arrest anyone working in our Embassy the moment they step out of the compound and tell them they’re subject to UAE law, since their provocation was VISIBLE outside of the compound. That will put an end to this garbage.

What the heck is wrong with the United Arab Emirates? Don’t they know that the United States has the right to tell the entire world how to behave?

We are “tone deaf” here.

American liberals are so damn sanctimonious about issues such as homosexuality. What they don’t understand, is that homosexuality is not exactly considered normal and special in many parts of the world. And it doesn’t help our international relations by doing things which shove homosexuality down the throats of other countries. This sort of thing is an unforced error.

Indeed. We shouldn't withhold acknowledgments where they are due.

LOL Schadenfreude.

Libs love Moslems. Libs love f a gs.

But do Moslems love homos?

(And believe me, libs defend the UAE as super enlightened so they can’t be that bad, just like Turkey.)

As an Orthodox Christian: Islam is not so much an blatant untruth as it is a distortion and deliberate misrepresentation of the Truth. Partial truths mixed with very impartial (from my perspective!) fabrications!

There is no need nor advantage —-nor excuse—- to insulting other countries. Especially one of the few islamic regimes that is making sensible and even somewhat friendly noises these days. This insults UAE while embarrassing USA. People need to be fired in wash DC

UAE is right and its an embarrassment that such a disgusting flag is being flown over our embassies.

same here. Hang those faggots. I’ve had many foreign friends who keep asking me why we “love homos” so much. I have to reply every time not all of America is into this sick sh*t.

In the past the term “Ugly Americans” referred to American tourists who did not respect the customs of countries in which they visited.

Now is seems American Embassies and Consulates have taken on the mantle of the “Ugly American.”

Unfortunately these small countries receive so much money from the US they cannot do much about the disrespect being shown.

Funny, but when I was in the military, we were required to conduct ourselves in accordance with our host country’s laws and culture. In the middle east, we had to dress conservatively, no public consumption of alcohol outside of western hotel bars, no public affection, and no eating or drinking in public during Ramadan. Now, the State Department is rubbing homosexuality in their face.

Unfortunately by doctrine it denies the Deity of Jesus Christ
