Point is that making a deal about this is silly; given what goes on in his own region and country. Call it illogical if you wish.
A region is a big place. We are talking about somebody having something happen to them like this in Japan and then pointing to violence in Chicago as a reasoning to not be concerned even though the person is from Ohio. I get you are saying the whole region has some issues, which it does, but using violence that occurred in a different country to try to paint his home, which is in a different country, as a violent place is illogical. If you have evidence of this sort of thing happening in the UAE then that would've supported your argument.
As for your point, it's not silly. The 4th Amendment says it isn't silly. Whatever happens in their country, or any other country, doesn't matter. We have the 4th Amendment and it applies to all people in our country, visiting, residents, citizens, all of them.
