--- quote start

"The ongoing Dubai Expo, along with the presence of international conglomerates,‌ has given more coverage to the Houthi attacks. If the Houthis target business centres, it‍ would break the backbone of the UAE economy and damage the national brand image of⁠ the UAE as a peaceful business oasis amidst conflict zones in the Middle East."

---- quote end

Not good. Both sides should seek peace.
 

Israel said ready to sell Iron Dome to UAE, build regional defenses against Iran​

Source

Didn't have to wait long for that one, although the deal is not done yet.‌ It makes so much sense, that already before my previous message I checked if the‍ manufacturer of Iron Dome (Rafael/IAI) is a listed company. No luck there 😉

Anyway, this would⁠ serve much more the interests of Israel than those of the UAE. Even if a⁤ missile shield did its job, being subject to these attacks will scare away lots of⁣ people. There is really no alternative for peace, if the UAE wants to remain a⁢ regional hub for finance, trade and tourism. They should just let go of their grievances︀ against Iran and copy the foreign policy of Switzerland, Singapore etc. For Israel this is︁ a completely different game. They're fighting to maintain their regional hegemony. Hence they try to︂ build a coalition against Iran. All the better for them if the coalition also serves︃ their economic interests. Sheiks should pause and think before going all-in the anti-Iran bandwagon.
 
It’s a pity BJ would gladly nuke UK⁤ if it helps to make people forgetting about his covid parties… smi(&%
 
BJ needs all help he can‍ get to stay in office right now smi(&%. What distraction will he present next if⁠ sticking his nose in Ukraine/Russia issue does not work conf/(%.
 
Hmm, how about an Alien invasion? That could⁠ be twisted as a funny distraction at least. 😉
 
They are already having an “alien” invasion…but from France!‍ Till now it ain’t helping… smi(&%
 
Still some tourists don't care even with travel warnings. But sentiment can change quickly sadly‌ after a strike 😕.

I think the usual⁠ random event of a terror attack always does the trick to change the headlines every⁤ now and then sadly ca#"!. BJ can come out and say the usual spill about⁣ how attacker was known to authorities and we killed him and how without brexit they⁢ could not kill the attacker (lol...don't ask I made that bit up). Sadly Russia is︀ not playing ball with UK and US ratcheting up of tensions with Ukraine. Hell even︁ Ukraine is not playing ball any more as its harming their economy financially.

Human stupidity neither. It seems when people reach some sort of‍ stability and wealth status, they need to start falling again. i laughed when they proclaimed⁠ the “end of history” after the end of the Cold War…
 
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry when I read this. Use of a‌ $3,000,000 patriot missile to shoot down a $200 drone. Did I read it correctly a‍ single patriot missile costs $3,000,000 ????? 😵

The Houthi's just have to keep sending inexpensive unarmed⁠ drones and bankrupt UAE and Saudi Arabia smi(&%. $3m a shot adds up really quickly⁤ and Saudi's have ordered more. Only party that benefits from this conflict is Raytheon⁣ sadly.

From what I understand, saudis are running⁢ out of patriots due to Houti drone attacks.
