if you truely believe that you're pretty ignorant. This isnt anything new, Dubai has been building huge projects for the last 10 years. Dubai is the financial hub of the middle east, and a lot of the money goes through there....even the money funding terrorist organisations...so trust me nothing is going to happen to dubai as long as the money is still flowing in and out of it. Dont get all your info from fox news or cnn, try broadening your horizons a bit and you may see that even Arab countries are moving towards a more modern lifestyle, especially the younger generation.
Just cause the media shows a bunch of fanatics jumping up and down shooting their guns doesnt mean the whole of the middle east lives like that. Travel a bit outside your borders and you may realize it.
