OK, guys. Very funny. But UAE is one of our strongest allies. They openly support Trump’s travel ban. They have offered Israel to use their air space if they want to attack Iran.
I work on projects for Dubai Municipality, the agency that develops and maintains water infrastructure. My direct client is a woman, so this is an open society.
By the way, Dubai and Abu Dhabi are only 10% Emiratis. Most of the people there are expats, from Asia, Europe, US and the Philippines. It is so ecumenical that there are active Christian churches. One of the strangest things is shopping in November and December. The businessmen cater to Christians. Christmas music and decorations fill the malls, rivaling any in the US.
One of my college age grandsons wears a “Fly Emirates” tee shirt.
That was an eye opener for me.:)

Sounds like a great place to visit. Maybe the only place in the Middle East.
“They openly support Trump’s travel ban”
Are they taking in mid-east refugees?
