I would love to see what would happen in Canada if an Arab was detained in such a manner!
I guess you don't have any idea of how "exotic people" are sometime treated in western countries... which I already experienced myself. Would you react the same way if it was an Ethiopian guy instead of this woman ? Idiots are everywhere and Dubai is not the only place where people can sometime be treated with disrespect. It's sure than in the western world this wouldn't happen so much to western people... but that's not your point, am I right ?
