What would make the UAE stop funding Hamas?

Hmm whom to trust.

A magazine writer or a much decorated American general with decades of experience.

Tommy Franks defends Dubai port deal

I'll go with Gen. Tommy Franks.

The treat, or act of being reformed into a democratic secular republic.

David Horowitz, a reformed liberal (since the 70's when the Black Panthers killed someone he knew), has been one of the voices for conservatism in the late 1990's straight into this decade.

Mr. Horowitz can be credited as one of the people who has exposed leftist bias in schools and colleges.

He is not just a magazine writer.

Generals can be bought and paid for too; especially when it's yet another of Bush's personal buddies. If you want to argue then address the issues, and leave the cult worship at home.

Yes, but how would that be done? By us telling them we'll invade or something, or by trying to strengthen the already growing ties between us? There's no one-size-fits-all foreign policy.

I'm with you and Franks on this but I've got several of Horowitz's books, and he's a fantastic writer, a former leftist who's converted to Reaganism. Amazing story, really.

I just think he's wrong on this.

Be realistic, the only way to effect change is by forceably removing the exiting government, and extracting its religious underpinning. I don't care how much the king enjoys your wife's cooking, he is not going to put his head on a silver platter for you without a little outside intervention.

Well I'm trying to get at a real answer, not just a vague "remove the government" idea. Should the US go in and replace their government? Or just not deal with them, even though they've dealt squarely with us for years, and even built some of our ships? Seems to me they were once stronger allies of Al Qaeda than they are now. There's no perfect solution, but I'll take something workable and imperfect over pie-in-the-sky armchair military fantasies any day. Wouldn't you?

I did, but we don't know who wrote what. My opinion, Ms. Ehrenfeld wrote the majority, since she is listed first and the retired general decided to tag his name on it.

Anyway it's filled with hyperbole, did you notice that the UAE disbanded that think tank in 2003, 3 years ago, have they reinstated it, no, but the UAE is guilty of "disbanding" it. How dare they come closer to US thinking.

Actually Horowitz didn't write this.

My opinion, Ms. Ehrenfeld wrote it, with Vallely tagging on.

BTW, Vallely retired back in 1991.

Who to trust a retired general from 1991 or a retired General who has actual and recent experience dealing with the UAE.

I'll go with Franks.

Come on Dane, is that your best?

Where is that confirmation of Harriet Miers you swore would happen?
