Huffpo is carrying the story , sourcing local Emirati media . Dubai has got FB and Twitter to shut down accounts they claim were defamatory and abusive.

I think most of us already knew that the CID were monitoring expat sites like this one, hence the lack of anti-UAE rhetoric.

You are always watched on the internet! And not just by CID in the country you're in, but also by certain under the radar government agencies from US, UK, Israel....

Re: We are being watched............
I'd be impressed if the US had managed to hynoptise thousands of people into believing that they saw those planes in the air and then crashing killing thousands of people. My brother witnessed the planes crashing into the WTC and the carnage in NY. He's less than polite about those that deny it happened. (Plenty saw the other two as well.)
