It's nice to have yet another article to send along when anyone asks what life in Dubai is really like. It may paint with a broad, unflattering brush, but capturing the overall essence of the place? BANG ON.
It amuses how the defenders whine about the "distortion of facts" but neglect to point out which ones they take issue with. Was it the mention of greed? Penis envy? Cultural vacuity?
And to complain about hyperbole when it is used against "Dubai, Inc.", is a bit rich...the place is BUILT on hubris (and not much else, as it is being discovered...)
