thanks! It was ridiculous that the media jumped all over this last night. Especially CNN. Hate to watch, but always best to know the other side's game plan. Two things I learned from watching them.
1) DUBAI will have absolutely NOTHING to do with CNN. Nothing. No interviews, nothing. They can't stand Lou Dobbs. He, of course, is playing this for all it's worth. Reminds me of an O'Reilly wanna be. He only wishes.
2) I also heard CNN claim that the 45 day 'redo' is not the 'redo' it appears to be. Apparently the deal goes through on March 2 regardless. Anyone else hear this?
For all intents and purposes, yes, this is a done deal. Dubai Port World very graciously offered to delay the transfer in order for the idiots in Congress to review the facts and to give more time for the facts to get out to the American people so they would be more comfortable with the transfer.
Dubai Port World made a legal business deal that was approved by the appropriate authorities. There is no reason for them not to take control of the lease whenever they want.
