Lawsuit Over Camel Jockeys

How often does a blogger get to use the term "camel jockeys" and not get accused of racism? You have to take the opportunity when it's presented.

The governor of Dubai is being sued for....CAMEL JOCKEYS!

A legal case has been filed in a US district court alleging that the governor of Dubai and his brother enslaved about 30,000 children over the past 30 years for use as camel jockeys.

The claim, which is based on international laws banning slavery and child labour, names Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Governor of Dubai and Vice-President of the United Arab Emirates, and Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid Al Maktoum, as well as others.

The brothers, who are among the world’s most famous racehorse owners, are accused of trafficking boys as young as 2 from Bangladesh, Sudan and southern Asia.

I don't really care much about the story - I just wanted to be able to say CAMEL JOCKEYS!
