I like many others would need a visa, my country has
good diplomatic
relations and a good standing with israel, but having that visa on my
passport regardless of the stamp might create a problem for future
travel
to
not just me but anyone else. This would affect not just me
but Europeans and Americans if they want to go to the say Dubai for
example,
they might have trouble with the same issues.
I am also concerned about being harassed or questioned unnecessarily for
maybe previously travelling to these places as well.
I am interested in attend wikimania but the cost might be too much for
me
or
others like me.
UAE is no problem.
For travelling to Saudi Arabia, just get a new passport upon your return
home.
I would be much more concerned with the heat.
