(FOX News) David Asman - You may have seen these incredible pictures on the Internet: ski slopes built in the middle of the Dubai desert. The Dubai ski slopes are really an amazing engineering feat: a massive indoor freezer, the size of three football fields, in the middle of the desert. They maintain a 6,000-ton snow base for five different slopes kept at a constant temperature well below freezing. The cost of building and maintaining something like this is well into the billions. Take a look at the Burj Al Arab hotel, also in Dubai, where you can't get a decent room for less than a few thousand a night. All this got me to thinking about the Palestinians and the money we've been sending there. Why don't we ever hear about the obligations of rich Arabs to take care of their own? They've obviously got billions of petro-dollars to throw around. Why aren't they told off for not giving more to their Palestinian brothers? We get creamed for not subsidizing dishonest terrorists and oil-rich Arabs hear not a word about spending money on toys while their brother Arabs are starving. 2006-03-31 00:00:00Full Article
