So, how do I know that? Well, he used the expression "is seeking control over six major US ports" in his article. Since that's not really what is going on, that identifies his piece as essentially propaganda, and leftwing propaganda at that.
These guys want to brew up a rift between the USA and UAE such that we have to withdraw our forces from there. Inasmuch as UAE is our major marshalling yard to support all of our forces, including two fleets, in the Middle East, that would be an unmitigated disaster for the United States.
In short, this is just more enemy talk.
When is "W" going to show some cojones and toss these people in the clink for the duration just like Woodrow Wilson?
What so funny about this is there is a thread where The Church of England is making moves to divest from Israel. Shall we boycott the UK. How about all this liberal mainline Protestant churches that are making political points by trying to Divest. No Espicoplains running our ports there anti Israel!!! This is getting to be ludriocus.
I am very pro Israel but the key is to bring the UAE into the World more. Hatred and prejudices will fade and progress will be made. The Israeli card is being used in desperation.

When is "W" going to show some cojones and demand that the UAE officially recognize the current Afghan govt instead of the old Taliban one in exchange for doing business in the USA? As a "good" partner in the War on Terror would.
