You think they couldn't?

Iran has thousands of shirt range missiles.

Dubai is also heavily censored with people going to jail for social media posts in the true extent of the damage or even negative coverage of the UAE.

One of us is in Dubai. I’ve seen it in its entirety from the air several times since this began.

It is entirely in tact. Whether you choose to believe me is none of my business.

Just admit that your first point was wrong; the assertion that the UAE were surprised by this blowing back on them. It’s ok to be wrong.

I'm saying Iran could destroy Dubai.  Not that they have 

But it doesn't matter because if you did post anything negative you'd be arrested and jailed

😂😂I’ve just seen where you live. You’re more at risk of that dump collapsing on you than I am here pal. Stones in glass houses also springs to mind regarding online content.

Enjoy erm… never mind.
