UN to move from New York to Muslim Dubai?
Dubai: The government of Dubai on Thursday announced that it is fully prepared to host the headquarters of the United Nations if its officials decide to move from New York where the organisation is currently located.
According to an official source in the Dubai government, the announcement was made in light of the UAE's — and Dubai's — appreciation of the vital role the United Nations plays in all areas, and in the protection of international peace and security and economic development in particular.
The source said Dubai welcomes dialogue with UN officials to provide them with full information on the capabilities which the emirate can provide and which could make it the optimal choice as the new seat of the UN headquarters if a final decision is taken to move out of New York.
Among the capabilities which Dubai possesses are suitable geographical location and world-class infrastructure and air, land and sea transport systems which make the emirate an easily accessible meeting point in the middle of the world, noted the source.
Dubai's offer is part of efforts the UAE is making to assume its full role as a responsible and effective member of the international community and to find alternatives to contribute to stronger international joint actions.

All I can think of is Scooby over Dubai:
-
Although Dubai is ofc ran by Muslims it is pretty free, especially compared to the US besides in religious freedom, but then again it reminds me of America, Muslims and Atheist have religious freedom but anyone who follows God not Satan is not allowed to speak about it in public.
But then again their better laws built the biggest building in the world in the same ammount of time that it takes to build a building half the size and for the same cost.
