Allright, more than enough laughs than is good for me, so back on topic: Why is there no Arab democracy? I spotted this: Where oil dominates, there is little wealth creation through investment and risk-taking, for why take risks when there are steady profits to be made at no risk? And then there are...

Sporting the intellectual challenge with a little satire for distraction. Care to join the debate?

and what are you still doing on DF Robby? I thought you were done with us here on arabland Sporting the intellectual challenge with a little satire for distraction. Care to join the debate? you call this a debate? It is now, thanks to you. :lol: Of course there is progress. I never said there wasn'...

Luv, lets focus on the human rights and dignity first. When that reaches a civil level, then we talk about animal welfare, cool?

you cant blame animals that though humans claim to be intelligent, they fck and multiply without control like rats. if you live in utter missery, dont produce a herd of children so you have to send them out for begging. That might seem strange from your perspective, but people who live in utter mis...

don't blame robbyg, his idea of human rights is slaving kids and women for pornography "legally " beside the freedom of selling drugs in coffee shops... check nether land crimes against human rights, you will get shocked this is happening in EU. You should come and visit us. You'll be ama...

Democracy is a political government either carried out directly by the people (direct democracy) or by means of elected representatives of the people (Representative democracy). The term is derived from the Greek: δημοκρατία - (dēmokratía) "rule of the people". This i got from http://en.w...

(No arnie - keep this here, we don't want to confuse eh with some more topics where he'll be itching to blame Muslims for ) :mrgreen: Where did you conclude that? I don't know what agenda you work on, but you better not insult me like that. I really object against such dishonest statements. Religio...

^^^Is absolutely correct in his observation^^^

^^^Should know that I'm more balanced in opinion than you expect me to be^^^

On December 14, 2009 the Government of Dubai, under the patronage of Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE, issued Decree 57 ("The Decree") exclusively to supervise existing and future formal reorganization and restructuring of the Dubai World...

As a result, the Brits got the Bank of England, 'modern finance' (borrowing from its own people) - could more effectively finance wars and effectively this led to it seeing off the next big rival - France. The rest is history. I would like to correct some of the injustice you portray about my herit...

Wrong again Arnie. :D It was the French who attacked us from behind while we were stretched to the limit in Asia with all our ships. We never counted that the French traitors would stab us in the back while we didn't expect it. We had no defense left in Holland. All was out in Asia. That was the end...

I find it hard to believe that you guys aren't buddies by now. After all the fierce battles over a couple of words, while basically discussing the same thing repeatedly, its time you guys made up the balance. In Europe we would call you fella's fundamentally 'radicalized'... :lol: First of all, who ...

It is a fascinating thread. My first post was to condemn Syrian actions and also to invite the fanbois to join me in condemning more recent attacks against Kurds - in Turkey and Iraq. (In Iran it appears the Kurds are doing fine in terms of tolerance etc) I wonder how much 'static' there would have...

Fair enough. One suggestion though. Why don't you guys use a little more structure to point out with what status you agree on and with what not, because I tend to get lost in these utter ramblings of you and your friends. I must say, some subjects are quite interesting indeed, but please keep some o...

That I noticed. Appreciated. Your friends on the other hand seem to be quite offensive towards you and unwilling to keep it on contents. I don't want to sound like the politburo but in our politics, we don't foulmouth our fellow members. Is this a one party condemnation effort or do these projectile...

One can't disagree with that.

What a world we live in. Its laughable from my Western perspective, but if I were living there I would definately be crying. Again...what a world...

Say whatever you want however the guy who has been caught unfortunately broke so many laws. 1) He is most certainly Muslim, so it is against Shariah law to consume Alcohol. 2) He is not allowed to share accomodation. 3) He is not allowed to share accomodation with a female. These laws are all well ...
