Neither did he write this article! Look at the two names on top.
On January 4th 2006, Sheikh Mohammed became the Ruler of Dubai following the death of Sheikh Maktoum bin Rashid Al Maktoum. Check out this "poetry" he wrote about Mohammed Al Durra
Its under the "poetry" section:
http://www.sheikhmohammed.co.ae/english/index.asp
To the soul of the child martyr, Mohammed Al Durra
Pressed back, without supporter
A child defenceless, confronting aggression
Hiding, the bullets of tyrants
Have no mercy for a child, so young
Seeking shelter, slaughter him the criminals
Savages, whose tyranny never waned
Oh Mohammed, in Paradise of the eternal
Oh Mohammed, your voice reverberates throughout
Oh Mohammed, with you, the God of the Worlds
Whose mercy enfolds you forever
Oh Mohammed, who saw you grieved
And all, if we could, would sacrifice
A thousand million, the Muslims
All for you, Mohammed, fathers
Alas, where is the peace of the just?
The peace you seek is futile
Lost it, without doubt, the usurpers
When allowed their hatred to renew
And boiled the blood of Arabs, East and West
When Sharon visited the mosque
Oh Arabs, comrades for years
Bury that which passed, as became
Our greatest concern, to defend against aggressors
Who against Al Aqsa their aggression began
My nation, would that you unite
In lines, terrified then the enemies
Follow Zayed, the leader of the wise
Who called for unity and initiated
Oh Saladin, oh the greatest conquerors
Oh Omar, oh the dignified and the generous
The state of the nation allures the greedy
We seek naught but unity to satisfy
Among my questions, few of which are related to security, is this one, how did foreign companies displace American private and public management of transport facilities?
It does not threaten my sense of security so much that port management, toll road management, or air transport facilities are managed by British, UAE, or by a partnership betweeen Singapore and China. Responsible agencies such as the Coast Guard give assures security is in their hands. What matters to me is Americans appear increasingly incapable of managing their own facilities.
But, is that really true? Have we surrendered control to the highest foreign bidder?
On what do you base this idea of risk? Let's have it: What has the UAE done to us that makes this a risk?
For globalists to be true to their convictions they must champion letting arabs run part of our nations infrastructure at this delicate time. No globalist can be against this deal at all. If such globalist is, then he is a hypocrit. This is the snare of globalism and this is but one of the warning shots which our president doesnt want to hear. As for the generals, they are paid and serve at the whim of the president, nothing more or less. Im not judging any general, but those are the facts.
Or maybe, like in the real world, they are list alphabetically. Try the real world for awhile, Dane.
I am, I trust more a retired General(Franks) who has real and recent experience dealing with the UAE, than a writier who bases her article on snippets from newspapers and a General who has been retired since 1991(Vallely) and no recent or real experience dealing with the UAE.

Btw, did you know its not only the commerical ports that al queda will be managing soon, its also two mainland USA military ports. One is at Corpus Christi and I dont recall the other one.
Do you have a link or remember the source?
I believe Naval Station Ingleside is closing, thanks to BRAC. Corpus Christi Naval Air Station, which will remain open, does not utilize port facilities.
Perhaps you're thinking CC, which has first claim on the property, has invited a foreign management company to take over the redevelopment?
"I'll go with Gen. Tommy Franks."
Oh what does he know about the Middle East. LOL
Saw him on Fox, very persuasive. Of note, he said the Port of Dubai was the US Navy port of choice over there because it was well run and secure.
Yeah, but other than that, what's the problem?
"What would make the UAE stop funding Hamas?"
Was the US not funding them untill the most recent election over there?
"Generals can be bought and paid for too;"
Why don't you just label him a Bennedict Arnold and be done with it?
Tell the truth, Dane. You trust anything this adminstration spouts not matter what it costs American citizens.
Amen ,Thank You ,I agree .Why this outcry now ,It seems to me all these politicians protest to much,No one is concerned about COSCO and how the Chinese have ports surrounding us and they control both ends of the panama canal ,I just cant understand this firestorm about something that has been business as usual for years,Maybe Rush had a good angle on this the Longshoreman Union,Tommy Franks said it in his Statement The port of Dubai is the best run port system he has ever seen .Effeciency is the enemy of unions ,less members paying dues, deserves some looking into
Many of the 9/11 hijackers passed through the country and had cash wired from Dubai.
Gulf emirate expanding its global reach to include operation of airports around world, international landmarks, international terminal business, global ports, autos, hotels, skyscrapers, and 100 shopping malls.
Wow! Look at all those bush-bots. When will they wake up?
