[governance] Dubai Court Gives Man Three Months in Jail for

[Rui Correia]

Dear Jeffrey

Are we to take this seriously????

An Egyptian gets jailed in Dubai, therefore it is no longer safe for
anyone to go to Egypt??? What are they going to do? Mass-retaliate for
one of their own being jailed for committing a crime? Boy, if that
became fashionable - ergo - we should just all - regardless of our
decent [sic] stay home for fear of being arrested in reprisal for the
arrest somewhere in the world of a citizen of a country we might have
been considering going to!

Regards,

Rui
