LincolnPirate,
I believe that the cities in Europe took centuries to be built, right?
If Qatar can "imitate" the superficial looks of western cities in less than a decade, why can’t they also copy the social welfare achieved in the west as a result of centuries of evolution in the west?

As Muslims (they claim) isn't it wrong to display extravagant wealth and vanity far above the average western when they play miserable salaries to laborers far below those westerns pay?

Common, something is wrong and whatever it is, it's flooded with hypocrisy!
