Why is that the BBC writes so much more on the Gulf than anyone else? Today it's an article on Why appearances matter in Saudi.

In other news, I just learned that Robin Cook died this weekend. Alas, poor Robin. You were one cool dude.

Yeah, the story with the Al Thanis (ruling family) here in Qatar is pretty much the same. But don't tell them I said so. :)
