Well, I must say now I've seen it all.

I googled you and I see you're the owner of this website. I'm disappointed by your comment as it's unfounded and highly insulting. But it's your site. C'est la vie. [/quote]

Insulting is it? You are the one that wrote about "the dangers of allying yourself too closely with the local ruling families and what it requires of you and the potential outcomes if you are later seen to have betrayed that family".

Not only are you blaming the victim, but you are explaining the rules as you understand them. If the rules in the Gulf are "loyalty or death" and you are a resident of a Gulf nation, why wouldn't those rules apply to you? I am simply suggesting that you follow the rules as you understand them. I'm not sure why you would find that insulting.

I'm not that poster but you're being silly. You make it sound that the ONLY possible reason to feel different from you is that this person draws a paycheck from a royal family.

Quite apart from that is the obvious nonsense that a mere resident of a Gulf nation is miles apart from a former Al-Saud sycophant who adored the royal family until he didn't.

What do you think of the fact that Khashoggi applauded the executions of political opposition members in KSA?[/quote]
