In reality it's commercial spam and it's unlikely that there is an Angelica anywhere in the picture. <br /><br />We have received literally dozens of such spams here on this site since starting to cover the atrocious things being done to Prof. Karabus. All of those spams are sent in order to promote some aspect of Dubai's travel, tourism and real-estate industries. <br /><br />Normally we simply consign them to the spam hole. But that way, no one actually gets to know about this phenomenon, and we are left wanting to tell people about it. <br /><br />Those spams are triggered, probably, by the appearance of certain key words, like Dubai, Abu Dhabi, UAE, corruption in our blog posts. (OK, we're kidding about the last one.) <br /><br />So what happens is that we post a serious and <b>very </b>critical analysis of <b>the truly disgraceful things that go on daily in the UAE</b> and some spam machine responds by sending out a torrent of inane, close-to-English messages which many other bloggers will presumably publish on their sites without realizing how foolish they are. <br /><br />So here we are, being foolish for now, in order to educate our visitors. Hope you appreciate the education.This Ongoing Warhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00071059442104716833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29459499.post-3446062673925749252013-03-08T14:10:32.287+02:002013-03-08T14:10:32.287+02:00Beautiful and safe travelling just be possible wit...Beautiful and safe travelling just be possible with Emirates Air line <a href="http://www.dayoutdubai.com/prod-13-4-dubai-desert-safari.html" rel="nofollow">Dubai Desert Safari</a> Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17412354083554248615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29459499.post-24744588045853975692012-10-19T16:25:25.483+02:002012-10-19T16:25:25.483+02:00The latest information of which we are aware is [s...The latest information of which we are aware is [source: <br />http://www.health.uct.ac.za/news/?id=25&t=int] from the Dean of the Faculty of Health Sciences at University of Cape Town who said this:<br /><br />I am pleased to share the news that today, eight weeks after his imprisonment in the UAE, Professor Cyril Karabus was finally granted bail on condition that he surrender his passport and pay 100 000 dirhams (R240 000) as a deposit to the court.
