When you think you are quite knowledgeable..
This & BBN's post!
Wow indeed.
That video of Mansour's brother, Sheikh Issa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, torturing that guy with the help of uniformed Abu Dhabi police is utterly surreal.
The reason that Sheikh Issa is relevant again is because of what happened after that tape was released.
Issa went to court. And of course, he was found innocent. The brothers who released the tape were convicted, in the same sitting, of blackmail in absentia.
These are the expectations of what the law is for and how courts should work when this family breaks the law. The interests of that family and the interests of the state are the same thing: they’re absolute rulers, and anything they do is automatically legal.
Every time you read something from Manchester City talking about courts and culpability, remember what ‘guilt’ means for them and what courts are for. How even torture is legal if it's them doing the torturing. Weird sponsorship is nothing.
