    There’s plenty of honest workers there running the tourism industry with suddenly no income.

    War benefits nobody but the ultra rich.

    So no, this is not “good”

      I get that they migrated there to work to better their lives, but they went to do the dirty work of an exploitative industry. I don’t think it’s right that they were exploited in turn or that they’re in danger of losing everything. But I mean, leopards eating faces and all that.

      The sooner Dubai disintegrates, the sooner the machine that imports and exploits these people grinds to a halt. I stand by it being a good thing.
