I have never understood racing's fascination with, or kowtowing to, these criminals, other than pure greed, which pretty explains it all. Dubai is and always has been a criminal state:

Just as Switzerland had no qualms laundering the money (and stolen jewels and artwork, and ripped-out gold fillings) of the Nazis, so too have these dirtbags been happy banking the money of terrorists and tyrants for decades. But in our typical American way (easily adopted by the Euros) of finding that "wealth covers all sins", we have venerated these scoundrels into "racing's royalty".

I hope the whole place goes down in flames.
