Weird stuff. And I inclined to be suspicious of his supposed Middle Eastern origins. My reasons for thinking this are pretty subjective, and I really should read more of his posts, but...

For me his imperfect English isn't imperfect in the ways it should be. Most educated Middle Easterners learn British English; he doesn't use Brit spellings or characteristic phrases. In addition, he makes mistakes typical of relatively young Americans: "it's" to indicate possession (incorrectly; it should be "its") and the infuriating "loose" instead of "lose" (as in to lose money).

Should we really take him seriously? One thing's for sure: he ain't the Sultan of Dubai.
