Being Jewish in Abu Dhabi

From an email I received today:
Last night we took a friend of ours for dinner. She's visiting family for two weeks for the holiday while on vacation from Abu Dabi. We had a a great time catching up but what she told us about the recent situation is Dubai was chilling.

"Oh, the Mossad assassination? It was highly, highly amusing - NOT!

"Once the Dubai police chief announced they would be instructing police to identify Jews entering in the country; let me tell you, everyone keeps a low profile.

"Oh, we're fine but it's pathetic - I mean, really, most of the Israeli's you meet in Dubai are as dark as the Ay-rabs. What are they going to do - arrest their own people?"
Hmmm.

A lot of Israeli Jews do look like Arabs. And there's no way to know if they are Jews or not. Let's ask Tamim if he has figured out yet how to tell an Arab from a Mizrahi Jew.

Heh
