UAE's Ruling Dynasty's Mouthpiece

"Most of us in the Middle East still believe that incompetence is a trait exclusive to dictators such as Muammer Gaddafi, Saddam Hussein and Jamal Abdul Nasser." First, is this dude who did not notice Israeli attacks on Gaza, a son of the religious fanatic who doubles as Sharjah ruler? Secondly, do you associate incompetence also with the rules of Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait, Egypt, Jordan, etc? But what do you expect from the opinion pages of the mouthpiece of House of Nahyan which is edited by Hassan Fattah, the graduate of Martin Peretz's school of Jobitinsky journalism. (thanks Robin)
