Instead of blaming the Brits we should rather look at ourselves brother usama. You mention that you live in the UAE. Why do Muslims nod yes sir, yes sir to every white man with blue eyes that they meet in the UAE? Why does the white man with blue eyes and blonde hair get to skip the immigration queue? Why does the white man with blue eyes and blonde hair chat a lot of rubbish and win all the lucrative contracts? Why does the white man with blue eyes and blonde hair start feeling that he is better than everybody else when in his own country (UK and the rest of Europe and America) nobody would even spit in his direction. It would be better to sort our own house first then to blame the brits. We are the people who allow these people to get away with murder. These very same people who in their homeland are nobodys get away with a lot of things in countries like the UAE. I blame the Muslims first and then the white man with blonde hair and blue eyes (sorry I'm not being racist but making a point)

Brother London, the original post was about the views on apostacy of Muslims in Britain. And it was posted by a nonMuslim who sought a moral stand against Muslims believing in hudud despite not practicing it.

You may not blame her for opposing Muslim viewpoints, but I stand by my posts.

The thread does not directly deal with business in the UAE. But I partially agree with you.
One can find dozens of Western columnists in the english media of the Gulf- there are arguably more Western columnists and opinion makers than Arab or Muslim columnists. And many executives are Westerners, namely British and American.
Incidently, the UAE has adopted a new Emiratization policy which seeks to replace expats with Emiratis. In fact, most Khaleej nations have adopted a nationalization policy.
The effects, however, have largely been to expel Arab expats from long held government and state runned businesses in exchange for Khaleejis. From my limited information in Abu Dhabi, most CEOs of state owned companies are Emiratis. Many expats who have been replaced and expelled are Egyptian, Sudanese, Palestinian, Syrian.

As for the trend of business contracts going to 'blonde haired, blue eyed' runned companies, I'm not sure this trend is totally accurate. Can you give some examples?
