with all the tension with the pointless waste of time that is ‘whistle blower’ gate going on in US politics & the Middle East region on the edge, I thought something positive happening needs a mention.

Unlike leaders who use divisiveness & xenophobia to gain a following, he’s quite the opposite, he’s inclusive of all religions & ethnicities. He takes pride in his culture without having to apologize as others do. He’s just getting on with it! 4/

He follows the rule of ‘concentrate ur resources internally towards ur own country’s development’ and pushing for peace with everyone. His ability to choose ‘the better for everyone’ route has made him highly respected man in the region by everyone without exception. 3/

Every success connected to UAE is bcuz of the ruler of Dubai, Mohd BinRashid. Of all the rulers in the region, he’s the only one constantly pushing his country towards economic development & constantly setting the bar, in the region, high. 1/

Money can take you anywhere

Very bad acting

Blast, Radiation Unnerve Russians Living Near Test SiteAfter an explosion during a missile test in northern Russia killed at least seven people and caused radiation levels to spike in the area, local residents are worried about the dangers of living near the test site. Compared to the massive devastation the Russians suffered in an often forgotten alliance with our United States and England against The Third Reich, this accident is very small indeed... though of course for those struck by tragedy: It's immense. Did you forget purposely the ON- GOING Fukishima disaster? The ALMIGHTY says 'WHO cares about the fish of the sea when HE allows every fish to die?' TAKE NOTE...it's happening right under our nose! AND IT'S NOT CAUSED BY CLIMATE CHANGE EITHER! NOT A WORD! WHY? Duh.
