#1 Oh yeah, focus on those Middle Eastern markets -- they'll feel right at home between the beheadings, the suicide bombers, and the natural disasters.

#2 You forgot to mention the lovely way tourists get drugs planted on them then thrown into prison...

y'know because everyone would want to smuggle $50k worth of pot into a country were the street value is only $5k.

Tourists... just can't do the maths.

So lets all go to East Timor instead!

#3 Kind of helps us "couch potatoes" with our self-esteem and guilt; hand me that remote! Muslim countries are great vacation spots. Out of this world.

#4 Looks like Indonesia's out too, hon.
Don't forget to pack the grenade launcher.
