Ruh Roh! Psssstttt. Hey, you middle eastern guys, remember the bargain you got from algore and the deal for 'current TV'? I hear he has some solar and wind power shares he'd be willing to make a deal with you on. No, really. Or you could invest in his carbon credit futures uh, endeavor.

They could look to Dubai. They don’t have a lot of oil, so they have tried to become a mideastern Hong Kong.
Offer tax free trade, manufacturing, banking privacy, personal security, and the world will beat a path to your door.

Dubai has a fleet of about 75 A380 airliners (larger than a 747) and more on order for a total of 140. They fly all over the world with Dubai as the hub.

It’s going to be hard to change an economy built on caravan raiding, slave trading, camel herding and oil selling.
To: Obadiah
they have developed all sorts of industry that not only provide products for the local GCC economy but for export

Using solar energy to produce electricity for Egypt comes to mind as well as Dubai ideas.
