Actually it looks like you are around the 40th percentile in the GCC, with only Qatar, Kuwait, and the UAE ahead of you. So the real question is what are the Saudis and Omanis eating?Justin Genglerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07926253352423304711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8391958287808959571.post-44647228616630987742012-07-04T14:38:01.113+03:002012-07-04T14:38:01.113+03:00If you want to take a look at more meaningful and ...If you want to take a look at more meaningful and substantive matters, then see here:<br /><br />http://www.arabianbusiness.com/four-gcc-countries-rank-amongst-world-s-10-fattest-nations-464631.html <br /><br />Why is it that the average Bahraini succumbs to less calories than his GCC bretheren!

Full of bravado and machoisms but very little substance to back it up. Think Saddam (here again - big moustache was very important), Gaddafi, Bin Ladin, bla bla bla.
