The Dubai Dichotomy
 
A well written article from the Washington Post. It is refreshing to see an unbiased view of what this place is all about. For your information.

Would post the entire article but unfortunately the number of words is longer than this website allows.

A great article on Dubai was run in the June "Vanity Fair". Over 20 pages worth of reading. If you are looking for the mag in a library, it has Anderson Cooper on the front. The name of the article is "Dubai's the Limit". A quote from the article "Las Vegas is a sputtering 20-watt bulb compared with this fire in the desert." Another, "there is no architectural rhyme. This is a skyline on crack." Article covers everything from "guest" workers plight to what a night at Cyclone might cost you. Enjoy.
