Dubai fights back

Gulfnews: Western expats full of praise for Dubai

I'm not sure how close Gulf News is to whatever passes for government in Dubai, but this article sure has the feel of a PR exercise:

Many who spoke to Gulf News said they regard Dubai as one of the most comfortable and tolerant cities in the world and maintained the western media that "unleash mindless criticism on Dubai" is failing to see the real story.

Corrado Chiarentin, 44, who runs a business consultancy in Dubai, said it is "the most tolerant city" he has ever been to.

All depends how you define tolerant, I suppose, as well as how many cities he has been to.
