I have to agree with Frank, Howard and Lynne and others....
 
Lynne said pretty much what I was thinking.
 
These atrocities are beyond imagination in this day and age in a country so wealthy and so well educated - a country that works very hard to promote western tourism.  The UAE and it's rulers have **chosen** to perpetuate this crime toward children, and should, in my opinion, have to answer for it. 
 
My husband and I, will not participate in a *sport* in a country where children are exploited in this manner- and we are on the list to crew at the WEG.
