Thanks for the pics dazzling. It's unusual that Mo meets another leader without his traditional attire. Funny enough I read over the weekend (in a printed paper) that people in the US got confused because they mistook Mo for Mahmoud Ahmadinejad :ohmy: and thought Bush would attempt winning the Nobel Peace Price by inviting him to Camp David and discussing the nuclear program issue :lol:

i don't know what "printed paper" you are referring to, but as an american i can report that the news story was reported correctly. just google. most of us "yanks" know the difference between iran and the uae.
 
Boy, you sure are fast with these posts. I just saw this on television last night and was going to post this morning but you beat me to it. I was thrilled to see Shk Mo in the States. < ed political comment: Warren >

I agree Miss B. I also know the difference between Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Shk Mo. I like both of them actually. < ed political comment: Warren >

I read it in a financial paper over the weekend on the train. The content was not offensive but merely a joke on Bushs' expenses and and was based on the physical resemblance between Sheikh Mohammed and the Iranian president and I certainly did not want to spark a political discussion when mentioning it. I can't provide a source so let's forget about it.
 
Seem's none of Sheikh Mohammed's son's were on the visit but he was accompanied by Shaikh Abdullah Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Foreign Minister

I am new to the royal forum, HELLOOOO!!!
I have a question, is this just for men or do women, primarily the bride, allowed to attend these things?
ps
how do people meet in dubai, i thought singles of the opposite sex werent allowed to interact?

:welcome:

At wedding such as the event Sheikh Mohammed was attending, is for me, but i wount say only but majority are men. You might have 2 or 3 ladies especially if they are embassaders or people at work and the bride doesn no appear. Usually, there is a wedding for only ladies where the bride will appear. The UAE and Dubai is opening and women and men do interact since theyre starting to work together :)

Dubai's ruler Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashed al-Maktoum shakes hands with World Economic Forum chairman Klaus Schwab (R) at the Summit on the Global Agenda in Dubai on November 7, 2008. Maktoum, who is also Emirati vice president and prime minister, urged the incoming US administration to use "brain" instead of "brawn" in solving world crises, in a clear dig at the outgoing administration of President George W. Bush. The summit, which opened today, is organised by the World Economic Forum and aims to gather influential people from around the world to discuss global issues. AFP PHOTO/HAIDER SHAH via ANP
