Half of Dubai is leaving (probably for good) and the going rate for a ticket out of Saudi Arabia is apparently 300K USD.

And the US embassy is basically telling Americans to hop bus to the Sinai in Egypt and then good luck.

I am glad I saw the Burj Khalifa while it is still there..😷

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow Yes. A few iconic buildings hit will clear the place out. I was just wondering how far the damage would stretch if they knocked over that tower.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow I cant argue with any of that..This is what happens when people with too much money are left unsupervised.. But its one hell of a view.. You have to take three elevators just to get to the viewing level. And that is not as high as it goes..You can see the earth curve at the horizon from there..😷

There are places Americans shouldn't go. Every country in the Mideast, Russia and Mexico top my list but there are others.

@MoveAlong Right now I question the wisdom of allowing Americans outside the 12 mile limit..For everyones sake..😷

What is your source for this?
@FreddieUK No surprise there. Many hide their money in the Baltics and then party it up in the UAE.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow I had some friends who had moved to Dubai for work. I havent been in touch for over 10 years so I dont know if they are still there. My wife was an expat working in Korea, and from what she tells me of the expat experience, the motivations of many of these folks don’t entirely seem on the square.
@trollslayer Yeah. The UAE is kind of a place where all that matter is that you are wealthy. They don't care how you got that money.

And it all runs on literal slave labour.
