Political Side of ccTLD Domain Investing

AE DomainsThis isn’t a political blog, and I hate politics anyway, so I don’t have any additional commentary to provide on this topic, but I thought this notice was interesting:

“Due to the governing law of the UAE: Israeli entities and individuals are not eligible for .ae domain names.”

Aside from countries that require the registrant to live in the particular country of the ccTLD, are there any other domain registration restrictions like the one above?
