The exiles hope return to work in the United Arab Emirates, but they still refuse to reveal their identities for fear of what was left of the dreams they built in exile … Being swamped by the fear of the reaction of «Security UAE», if accused of incitement, “Most of these institutions and left there properties and relatives and friends, we must maintain them, as someone says to« News ».

There is a feeling of disappointment to the deportees, not because of their loss, but because of the way to deal with the case in Lebanon, they did not act publicly until after they witnessed the unwillingness of the official authorities in dealing with this issue seriously, and this is what made them raise many questions: «What if I changed accounts UAE policies and long-exclusion of other categories? What are the consequences of deportation on the work of the Lebanese in the UAE? What about the reputation of the UAE itself? ».
To keep the political negative repercussions on the reputation of the UAE economy, and an issue is not easy to overcome for a country that is marketed the same regional economic center, what happened with this issue of the Lebanese and the Palestinians and the Iranians in the UAE shows that the conditions do not learn to play a continuing role of the Center, and it is no longer a safe haven for many investors, as the deportees are not people or migrants crossing the living on the margin, but the investors, most of whom employed their wealth in this country, and now find they do not have any protection or stability.
Says president of the Lebanese businessman Camille Manasseh the «mixing politics with the economy is not acceptable», in Lebanon followed this method «and see where we are», and hoped that it be «just a misunderstanding, because the effects of political exclusion would be a negative impact on Lebanon and the UAE, particularly that long number of investors, businessmen and owners of small and medium enterprises ».
