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 if my original claim was true, it probably doesn't mean that the gulf is a better place to live in than America. The whole reason the argument started was because Burke said that the US was a better place to live in than the gulf, he supported his claim by pointing out that more Arabs move to America than Americans move to the Arab world, which is true when you factor in the whole Arab world, my point is, that isn't a valid measure for which country is a better place to live in.
