Kenya seeks end to visa row after Dubai rulers expelled
Too funny
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/8646155.stm
"Kenya's foreign minister is in Dubai to defuse a row after members of the Gulf state's ruling family were deported as terror suspects.
The four were on holiday from Dubai in Kenya's resort of Mombasa over Easter, when immigration officers interrogated them for hours before expelling them."

Re: Kenya seeks end to visa row after Dubai rulers expelled
Not so funny if you one of the 30,000 plus hotel, restaurant and office workers from Kenya, who can no longer go home to visit their families for fear of being refused re-entry. Even worse for those trying to come here.
Typical for the UAE Ruling Government to penalise those less fortunate than themselves. As for the original deportation, if the guys were unable to persuade Kenyan Immigration that they were genuine tourists, they deserve all they got. Surely a quick phone call would have done the trick.

I also like the part in the africannews article about , this being a typical case of racism against muslims. The guys became suspects, when they were seen trying to bribe some immigration officer.

Re: Kenya seeks end to visa row after Dubai rulers expelled
The chutzaph of claiming racism in the case is infuriating considering the Gulf royals and the region as a whole is tops when it comes to racism and treating other cultures, especially dark skinned people like sh.it. This is like the Klan being portrayed as victims of racism, only the Gulf royals make the Klan look like amateurs.
Not even getting into Arab slavery in Africa and their views on Black Africans and their support for the genocidal Arab Sudanese regime or slavery and Arab supremacy in Mauritania.
This kind of chutzpah of calling up as down and down as up, just grinds my gears.

How can they be racist against a religion that encompasses many races, especially considering there are Muslims in Kenya. Barack Obama's dad was born Muslim.

You don't get here anywhere with logic or reasoning. Since we live in this part of the world my new favorite word became PATHETIC.
It describes everything and any situation you encounter here
You can also replace PATHETIC with the place your living in: Dubai!, Bahrain!, UAE!, Saudi!
It's fantastic, everybody will understand you, by using just this one single word....
