The Syphilis factor

Puff piece after puff piece as these regimes are trying to portray themselves in a softer light are only adding insult to injury.
More western P.R agencies sucking up millions from these Dictators and their families giving them advice that not only shows a lack of understanding of the events occurring but are downright irresponsible as they will only further inflame an already volatile situation.
Looking at lobbying statistics published in the US you see that the UAE tops the list of spend, but they are all as guilty as each other of it.
Jamal Mubarak squandered fortunes with Bell Pottinger in the UK for his now corpse of a campaign.
The latest additions to sully our already overloaded minds are the Bahraini claims that Tanks crossing the causeway are their own just on their way back from Kuwait. Yeah right!  If a single round is fired then the death knell for the Al Khalifa regime must surely sound. Apart from the bloody atrocities committed already,  Saudi Tanks? Hello is there anybody there?
Then The Iconic fashion magazine Vogue runs an Ill-timed glamorous profile of Asma Al Assad the wife of The Syrian President that happens to coincide with the brutal crackdown on pro democracy protesters.what the hell were they thinking?
It would not surprise me if Dubai goes ahead with its Racing World Cup, which will only go to show that those that are advising them are as perverted as The Regime themselves.
Don't they realize this is not a time for racing extravaganzas or shopping festivals. Real people are being massacred across the Middle East and no one is immune from it. Carry on at your own peril.
I certainly have no sympathy for their self inflicted downfall as they say sympathy is just a word in the dictionary, and you find it between shit and syphilis .

  2. Well said! It is a rare despot who knows when to quit. Had these so-called leaders had a sense of measure they probably wouldn't have led the lives they have, first exploiting and oppressing and now savagely killing their own people to hold on to power. All the fluff in the world doesn't seem likely to guild their images at this point. But squandering the people's millions in the scramble to maintain a grip on power seems in keeping with past behavior.
