sheikh mohammed has said that the judgment has only given one side of the story. very negative light. remember, this is a british court, the high court, that has taken ten months to gather all the statements, and hear both sides of the story. whatever the sheik says, it has heard both sides of the story. he chose not to represent himself in court. he hired very expensive lawyers, as did his former wife, princess haya, and the court has come down on her side of events, which is to basically make public the very serious allegations that he, sheikh mohammed, kidnapped or abducted and rendered back to dubai his own daughters, one of whom was then subjected to inhumane and degrading treatment, as we saw on the video that was played in court and used a testimony. so it is a pretty serious allegation. is it going to bring criminal charges because my i doubt it. he is head of state, a british ally, and it is not something that the british government i'm sure is going to want to pursue, because raf warplanes use dubai's air bases, a million britons go there every year. it's
