Nothing ventured=nothing gained. The ME has done me a geat deal of good in my life, and I guess there are folks who have had the opposite. I have never felt any more under threat in the Emirates than anywhere else, in fact felt a lot safer than certain area's of western cities. It will mostly depend on how you interact with your overall situation as to how you get on. The Arabs are generally a kind and generous people, they suffer, as we do, with exceptions. I would think you, and your wife, are under no more risk there than where you are now and maybe even less.
