UAE warns citizens traveling abroad to avoid wearing traditional garb

FOX: The United Arab Emirates warned its citizens Saturday to avoid wearing traditional garb when traveling abroad after an Emirati man was arrested and mistaken for a terrorist in Ohio.

Emirati media reported that Ahmed al-Menhali was detained at gun point last week while wearing a traditional white kandura, or ankle-length robe, and headscarf in Avon, Ohio after a hotel clerk raised suspicions he could have links to Islamic State.  more

  1. The woman still may be arrested? If you see something, say something, but if you’re mistaken you may be arrested. GTFOUTTAHERE!
    Why do these assholes wear desert clothing in OHIO? Tradition?
    Imagine the Scots wearing kilts to the office or construction site?
    Imagine Germans wearing short pants and knee-high socks?
    And the police and the mayor apologize! Gimmeafookenbreak!

  2. Why was he here for medical treatment? Don’t they have first class enough hospitals and clinics over there?

    And so much for “see something, say something”.

  3. See something, say nothing.

    Medical treatment? There is no hospital in Avon, OH unless he was planning a commute to the Cleveland Clinic. What an odd choice of a place to stay if so.
    Cleveland Clinic has a massive, extravagant facility in Abu Dhabi. Odd how all the ass-lifters have to come to the Clinic here (and it’s in the heart of the ghetto) instead of their own part of the world.
    I guess it’s easier to get drugs, booze, bacon and prostitutes in downtown Cleveland than Abu Dhabi.

    Also read that America hating Clockmed is back in the US//Texas. Maybe they both need some practice and dry runs.
