This advert has been captured from the Ynet website owned by Yediot Aharonot, an Israeli newspaper. Interesting timing given Israel and Dubai’s recent history and Dubai police’s token new measures to keep out those with dual Israeli citizenship.

Israeli infrastructure Uzi Landau is pictured at the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) in Abu Dhabi. Special arrangements had to be made to facilitate the Israeli Minister’s visit to the Emirates who have no formal relations with Israel. Previously, the UAE had denied entry to Israeli tennis player Shahar Peer for an international tournament hosted in Dubai for which they were fined $300,000.
