I knew I would have this situation!

OK I think I might have given the wrong impression to some people who have read this blog. I understand why some of you might have misinterpreted my blog to be offensive, obnoxious, rude e.t.c

Let me start by saying this:-

1)I DO NOT HATE THIS COUNTRY. I repeat, I DO NOT HATE THIS COUTNRY

On the contrary I LOVE THIS LAND. IT IS MY HOME. AND I WILL DO ANYTHING IN MY POWERS TO PROTECT IT and more importantly IMPROVE IT.

2) I am not a revolutionary nor do I seek to change the way society functions here. I am not interested or ever will be interested in actively entering politics or placing my self in a situation whereby I or people around me could possibly be harmed.


3) I have nothing against the ruling families other than pure and true admiration for what a miraculous achievement they have accomplished with this land in the space of 50 years.


4)What I have mentioned in this blog are only my thoughts and opinions. That is all. I do not expect anything to eventuate from it. I just like discussing it.

If you do not like what I am saying them please tell me in a respectful and mature manner. Do not throw insults at me, for I haven’t done that to you personally. And if you feel that I am talking ‘rubbish’ you are entitled to express your opinion (in a decent manner) and not read my blog again. BUT DO NOT INSULT ME PERSONALY OR ANYONE ELSE IN THE COMMENTS SECTION. Vulgarity and obscenity will NOT BE TOLERTED. Discussions will be!

I understand were you come from local expat. Being raised and brought up in Abu-Dhabi most my life. I wanted the same things to be recognised by the country you grew up in and consider your home, but I gave up and left at the end. Still I also dont hate or blame UAE but I just see things in a different prespective now.

ALE, ignore the rude ones and focus on the positive. Obviously you're very welcome in the UAE and I feel this forum is a good place to take us forward as people in the young nation called the UAE.

Good work! bittawfeeg inshalla.

hmmmm how come there isn't a single comment in response to any of your blogs?

Let me guess - you have'em "screened/edited/censored" much like the expat community thoughts/sentiments in the UAE?

blessing in tragedy,

I might be interested if you can answer one question:

How come you don't have more than one comment on your blog

ha! A Blessing in Tragedy, your blog is for you to express your opinions, period! No matter however far fetched or short sighted they are. There is no room debate at uaechronicles.blogspot.com

I know so, because I've posted a few comments and none ever shows up? blogrosh is right, it's a self serving blog with censorship on dissenting views.

"Guy who posted on my blog before: you're full of shit. if you had posted a commnet it would be there."

honey! I've posted 3 comments at your blog, none have showed up. my comments contradicted with your views, but they were not vulgar or took any cheap shots.

perhaps you are telling the truth, in which case you should look into the fact why reader comments does not reflect on your blog.

btw I am not a guy, but a simple girl who has her views.
