A bit harsh, but much of it true...actually, I think most of it's true; it's just not the only truth. What's even more interesting and more telling is that when I went to buy this issue here in Dubai, pages 127-132 were ripped out! (Yes, I checked several copies.) I know these missing pages were where the article should have been because on page 133, which would have been the last page of the scathing expose, there were pictures of Dubai that had obviously gone with the article. Even weirder, the article wasn't in the US edition at all! The pages weren't ripped out of course, but contained ads. Palace intrigue.
