Their country, their rules. I think it is retarded but hey it is the law. I suggest not going to such backward thinking places, although I'll be making a trip to Dubai to see the Burji (sp?)tower once it is complete.
I just wish we would do the same here in my country, you come here it is OUR rules no exceptions. Learn our languages, customs and don't expect foot wash stations, prayer rooms or whatever else you think you deserve regardless of religion/faith whatever. Conform and fall in line or stop complaining/get the fuck out.
I fully expect the same treatment in return.
/sorry bitter on the subject.
edit- I just wanted to add that regardless of how stupid this law is I find it funny that these people did not take the time to learn the local customs. If i was heading to an area which is known for stupid things like this I would hope to invest a few hours into studying the local customs so I don't get beheaded (joke) or arrested.
