   Why is anyone surprised that this has happened? Every day Emiratis read censored news because it’s easier for a government to keep people happy if they are ignorant of their real situation.

   Thank god for the internet.

   Now that’s what you call freedom of speech….

   How ignorant would you have to be that having the Times pulled from local newsstands would affect your understanding of the situation one bit? How stupid do the censors think people are?

   The irony is that the fall-out from the default is likely to be more local than global, and yet the media coverage is more global than local.

   All together now; “there’s no place like home, there’s no place like home, there’s no place like home”.

   News, is about covering the event.. and not speculative wrong depictions of respected people. Freedom of speech, is not the right to disrespect and print recklessly. It is not the news which the country banned, it was the reckless act.
