The UAE is safe and immune to the evils of terrorism thanks to the affection Emiratis have for each other, said Lt Gen Dahi Khalfan, Deputy Chief of Police and Public Security in Dubai.
Gen Khalfan said there was no hatred among any segment of Emirati society, which stood as a bulwark against any force that might plot criminal activities, Al Ittihad, the Arabic language sister paper of The National reported.
He called for the punishment of hate-mongers in Arab societies, noting that holding people who incite hatred, racism and sectarianism accountable can help defuse the crisis rocking the region.

Know your Camel lingo
The bairaq is a competition for the best herd of 50 camels, named for the banner its winner takes home
Namoos - a word of congratulations reserved for falconry competitions, camel races and camel pageants. It best translates as 'the pride of victory' - and for competitors, it is priceless
Asayel camels - sleek, short-haired hound-like racers
Majahim - chocolate-brown camels that can grow to weigh two tonnes. They were only valued for milk until camel pageantry took off in the 1990s
Millions Street - the thoroughfare where camels are led and where white 4x4s throng throughout the festival
