Who would have thought that Dubai’s Head of Security could be such a racist, bigoted “Islamophobe”?

“Dubai’s Head of Security supports Trump’s ‘Muslim ban,’” AlBawaba, January 29, 2017 (thanks to Jerk Chicken):

America’s ban on immigrants from seven Muslim-majority countries may be stirring anger across the West, but in the Arab world the move has received some more surprising responses.

In a series of tweets, Dubai’s Head of General Security, Dhahi Khalfan this morning expressed his support for President Trump’s “Muslim ban”.

نؤيد ترمب تأييدا مطلقا في منع دخول كل من يحتمل انه سيسبب لأمريكا إخلال بأمنها. — ضاحي خلفان تميم (@Dhahi_Khalfan) January 29, 2017

We completely support Trump in his ban on entry to those who may cause a breach in America’s security.

كل دولة لها حق حماية أمنها ممن يحتمل انه خطر على سلامة الناس — ضاحي خلفان تميم (@Dhahi_Khalfan) January 29, 2017

Every country has the right to protect its security from anyone who could be dangerous for the safety of its people.

الإدارات الأمريكية السابقة احتضنت جميع المطلوبين للعدالة في الوطن العربي والمصنفين من الإرهابيين…ترامب ما تفعله صحيح — ضاحي خلفان تميم (@Dhahi_Khalfan) January 29, 2017

Previous US administrations have embraced all the wanted men of the Arab world and those classified as terrorists… Trump what you’re doing is right.

Khalfan, who has a following 1.5 million on his official Twitter account, also wrote that it was America’s right to “ban whoever they want to ban”. Emirati passport holders are not included in the executive order that Trump signed on Saturday, suspending visas for travellers from several Arab nations including Syria, Iraq, Libya and Yemen….
