Don't promote democracy, talk about the royal families or comment on treatment of foreign workers.
Israel is advising tourism professionals and businesspeople to avoid discussing those and other sensitive political topics with residents of the United Arab Emirates, as it protects its new peace deal with the Gulf Arab country and promotes new daily flights between Dubai and Tel Aviv, launched last week.
"United Arab Emirates: Do and Do Not," the tourism ministry's 29-page Hebrew-language advisory published Nov. 8, is the first public Israeli government comment on the issue of Emirati political freedoms, but it stops short of criticizing alleged abuses.

The Israeli Government is not about to lose its relationship with the UAE and Saudi Arabia again due to loose talk about the Kingdom or their ways of life, democracy, or the royal family. Israel wants to continue building and growing this new found friendship, without any obstructions. This advisory ahead of the groundbreaking aviation partnership is outstanding. Thanks Chip for this brilliant share.
