The inauguration of Wahat al Karama followed the introduction a year before of a Martyrs’ Day (Yūm al-shahīd) that is now considered an official holiday on 1 December to ‘honour and recognize those who sacrificed their souls in the line of duty’.55 The official banner of the event also reflects the influence of Western military themes as the posture of soldiers holding the Emirati flag may recall the iconic photo of US Marines raising the American flag in Iwo Jima (see Figure 6.3 & 6.4).
