Sooner or later the rest will follow suit. They all recognize that depending on revenue from oil exports is not sustainable in the long term.

There's no reason why they can't diversify their sources of income, and that is the direction Dubai is taking already, with Abu Dhabi following suit.

Well actually posts like Martin's aren't any better. As if there wasn't a time when Europe was backward

Its always been more of a political game in FIFA anyways, this isn't the first time, nor will it be the last time.

Bin Hammam and the Prince aren't exactly on best terms mind you. I think it was because they had the best bid. They were the ones that were most committed to make things work.

There is no freezing cold in Qatar. The weather is perfect in the winter. Still bitter i see.:seven:

It is at this time of year, the weather here is amazing right now.

They wouldn't need to have it in the winter anyway, but it would be cool if they did have it at December/January.

@Byrone, something around 22-26'C i think.

That would be amazing :D

You do know i'm not being serious right? Just making sure :D

Lets just all agree that Burke is a clown and that America sucks, shall we? Still its better than obnoxious Europe though.

Ya, i mean i'm pretty sure there are more Americans in the gulf than there are Emarati's or Qatari's in America. I said "most probably" because i have no actual empirical evidence that supports my claim, but i think its very fair to assume its true. The whole logic is flawed though, because even...

of course.

I don't need to compare anything, i think its a flawed logic. There are most probably more Americans in the gulf than vice versa, but does that mean anything? Probably not, it probably only means that gulf countries are wealthy countries who have a relatively low number of citizens.

Ok i change it to gulf country then :D My point is, if your going to apply that logic, then why don't you ask yourself why people come from the US to the gulf, but not from the gulf to the US. It shows you how flawed your logic is, unless your willing to admit that the gulf is a better place...

In general more Westerners come to the gulf than gulf nationals go to the West, the latter only happens for education reasons. There is very little reason for a Saudi or an Emarati or Qatari to move to the West, there are lots of reasons why Americans, British and Australians come to the gulf...

What the heck? 25'C is perfect weather you fucker :andy2:

Meh, we have different standards to whats hot and whats not. In the countries i just mentioned, the temperature can reach 36-37'C. But i don't really consider that to be hot, especially without the humidity. Now you're just being an American

Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco, Lebanon and parts of Palestine have a nice Mediterranean climate. The Arab world doe not just consist of the hot and extremely humid gulf countries. No.
