Wikipedia says it so it must be true

On February 22, 2006, President George W. Bush threatened to veto any legislation passed by Congress to block the deal, which would be the first time in his presidency he would exercise the privilege. In a statement to reporters, Bush claimed, "It would send a terrible signal to friends and allies not to let this transaction go through." Supporters of the deal claimed that the UAE were friendly to America, as the emirates allow U.S. warships in the Gulf to dock in their ports and re-supply their ships with oil, food and other goods for free. Crew members are allowed shore leave in the country and entertain themselves free in malls, brothels and movie theaters.
Since when do we let other people publicly allege that we have brothels in the UAE?!

I agree. It must be true.


How do I get to Dubai?

You could take a camel across from Saudi but I would recommend a flight from anywhere else.
