It is hard to comment on the disaster of this magnitude. But somehow I cannot help myself to share this true story: My very close friends work for an American global construction company Bechtel. For a couple of years they were assigned to the Emirates. Not particular fans of Arabs, their wives could not drive a car ( but had chauffeurs) or drink whisky, they were absolutely shocked when one day the Sheik decided to abolish all the debts of his subjects.
